I've read a couple of blurbs about a book, by Stephanie Tolan, about a
wacky family of creative homeschoolers. (I think it was a selected as a
Newbery honor book. The book is called Surviving the Applewhites. Has
anyone read it? It looks like it's only available in hardback right now.

My children's writing list has been talking about this book. I think it
just won a Newbery award. Some folks didn't think much of it. I didn't see
any mention of homeschooling in connection with it. Our library has it on
order, so I'll have to wait to see.

It's a yahoo list for people who write or want to write for children.
[email protected] will get you subbed if you're
interested. Watch out! It's even higher traffic than this list. <g>
There are hundreds of lists for writers of all kinds.

Now I can't remember the title. More CRS syndrome.

I posted a question about a book about a foster kid living with an
eccentric homeschooling family, titled Surviving the Applewhites. It
was just published this year, I haven't read it yet but will look for it
at the library, and I wondered if anyone else had read it.

I've got it on hold at my library, but it's only on order so it will be a
while.
