Teaching Ideas: |
|||||||||
| It would be interesting to pair this with other reminiscences (like Mitchell's Uncle Jed's Barbershop), with other books with a strong setting, or with other Appalachian books (like Rylant's Appalachia). It could also be used for prediction (i.e., did she stay in the mountains of Appalachia?). | |||||||||
