students at Woodfin Elementary in Asheville NC. One student

therapy work.  GREAT question!!

Warren Wilson college
Thursday, March 2 Paul and Freckles had the pleasure of
speaking to Lynne Firsel's Child & Adolescent Literature class

there is an animal lover.  This is one cool college and campus.

Saturday, March 18:  Freckles, Trish, and Paul visited with 15(!)
youngsters who are patients at Mission Hospital in Asheville NC.
Freckles even saw two kids she'd met before when she and Paul
had visited their schools.

leicester elementary
Monday, March 27:  Freckles and Paul spoke to Mrs. Geneau's
second grade class.  The topic was titled "A Day in the Life of

students, Mrs. Geneau, and with Caryn Levy, the wonderful media
specialist there at Leicester Elementary
