Brief reviews and thoughts about children's and young adult books by Minnesota authors (or illustrators), or about Minnesota. If I get the urge, it may also include ideas for using the books in the classroom. The emphasis is on books published since 1995, but don't be surprised if an oldie-but-goodie slips in occasionally.

Blue Burt and Wiggles
Blue Burt (a bird) and Wiggles (a worm) are best friends; and they live in the north woods. Fall is coming, other birds are flying south, but Blue Burt wants summer to last a little longer. He and Wiggles design a plan to turn fall into summer again. In another humorous story from Derek Anderson, readers will see that plans may go awry, but true friendship can last forever.
