From Shell: No New Leaf, but ….

Jane’s having a hard time with the current Leaf. (called Leaf 6: The Magic Of Mouse). She assures me that she’ll have it ready to roll next Friday.

In the meantime she invites you to read a little story about me and my friend Grayhorn SilverAntler. Dollmaker extraordinaire Lisa Mathias of Journey School made the Shell-doll. Lisa’s dolls are a lot like the dolls my mom makes! (well, actually, Jane says they are the dolls my mom makes, but that doesn’t make sense to me!).

Anyway here is what Grayhorn SilverAntler and I discover one Winter Solstice on the 100 Acre Farm … Enjoy a little winter in your summer!

Hi Again From Shell

Now things are rocking and rolling in the story! Jane tells me that she had a lot of fun with this chapter, and that as she updated it for this blog, she’s starting to understand a couple of things about my story that had puzzled her. So you may eventually see a couple of changes to earlier chapters. There will certainly be some changes for the later part of the story, but you may not get to see what those were!

Happy Fourth of July! Every year on The Island is a great fireworks show over the Inner Harbor. My cousins always go. The fireworks are launched from a barge. I can’t wait to go with them this year!

Ho ho ho, from Santa

Okay, gang — Santa here to report on the posting of the latest Leaf of our story. Well, it’s Shell’s story mostly but some of us have a few things to say and do in it too–that are very important, I might add!

Please note: I’m not scared to get on and off buses!
