I’ve just finished draft five of a new chapter book that might be ready to send to my agent soon….I hope so, anyway.
This is one of my favorite scenes:
“What did Mr. Cleary say to you in the office after lunch recess?” Emily asked anxiously as they walked down the hallway.
“A lot about rules. Don’t all these rules get in the way of the education?” Rani asked.
Maybe a little bit, Emily thought. But she didn’t think she should say so.
“I could probably manage either the rules or the education,” Rani went on thoughtfully. “But not both.”
