Thanks for printing her poem. Thanks to you also, Esme, for taking time to inspire the kids of Galesburg, my hometown, and Lombard, my school when I was a kid. Having moved away from Galesburg many years ago and lived far and wide, it's exciting to see people like you who inspire children to learn about and, hopefully, one day explore the world beyond their own city limits.Maggie Sumnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17952250815967538831noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24418123.post-5863542414059938042008-11-22T07:43:00.000-06:002008-11-22T07:43:00.000-06:00Esme,How absolutely splendid!
