Sarah Pennypacker is a friend of Barbara O'Connor!!

Oh, yes, that is correct!!!
I spoke with Ms. Pennypacker when you all were at P.E. and asked her if she would Skype with us. She said that she would like to try it with a class. When I told her how well our call with Barbara O'Connor, she told me that they are friends!!! Small world!

    I never knew that Sarah Pennypacker is friends with Barbara O' Connor! I like some of the quotes/things she said and I'm going to think about them in writing.

    That is very interesting I wonder if other writers are friends with each other as well. Like maybe Rick Riordan and Suzanne Collins discuss their ideas with each other as well.
