After listening to me read aloud Neil Gaiman’s The Graveyard Book the class made a truly spectacular mural showing the various places of the book. I did a post about the reading, the kids’ responses to the book, and our mural at my blog, educating alice. I let the author know about it and he posted my email to him on his blog:
Hi Neil,
My 4th grade class has created a quite splendid (if I do say so myself) mural of The Graveyard Book. I’ve a post with some images from it and their responses to the book here:
http://medinger.wordpress.com/2008/11/14/in-the-classroom-the-graveyard-book/I loved the mural — and even more than that, I loved the description of reading The Graveyard Book to a fourth grade audience. Thanks so much!
After that thousands came to visit the blog! (On Saturday 4,128 came by!) Scroll to the end of the post to read the comments some of them left. And here is the mural for you, your parents, relatives, and friends to enjoy. It is truly wonderful!
