A GIRL WITH A CAPE
AUTHOR: AMY LOGAN comes to PRAIRIEVIEW.....
Amy Logan, author of A Girl with a Cape, is visiting
our school on Friday, November 14th. Ms. Logan
wrote this story about a little girl who is ready to
make a big difference in the world. She eventually
gets frustrated because she feels there is no big
moment in her life that she can make a difference in.
However what she didn't realize is that every time
she was nice to someone, it made a difference
in that person's life. This is a story about
"paying it forward" and remembering that
here is a superhero in everybody.
