Patricia McCormick was great!

On Monday night six CHS students joined me at Wenatchee High School to watch the movie SOLD and to hear the book's author, Patricia McCormick. Mrs. Gemeinhart and her daughter, Mrs. Kert and her daughter, and Mr. Taylor and his wife also sat with us. All the CHS students enjoyed hearing her talk about the research she did and her writing process. The movie was totally sobering, but did a great job of gently portraying the story. We viewed the 55 minute PG "school" version, but you can view the 90 minute version for free on Hoopla with a public library card. You just need to create an account using your library card number. I would encourage you to read the book SOLD if you haven't and consider reading other books by this great author, Patricia McCormick.
