Tag-a-long Wilma Andrews

"My class loved the Tag-a-Long book because they could relate to the girl and her quilt. They said the book was like a "true story" because they had either things like bears or quilts or a special blanket that was theirs only and it was "their tag-a-long." It triggered a writing frenzy with my students. They began to write about their "tag-a -longs" and the adventures of other things that could be "tag-a-longs." It has been a wonderful language experience for my first grade students." Ms Candi BorahFirst Grade TeacherGunnison Elementary SchoolGunnison, Colorado "The gift of a quilt is a gift of love and comfort that one never outgrows. How well Ms. Andrews has captured this feeling in her Tag-a-Long book. Children need this sense of love in order to become comforting adults." Beverly GoodeIndependence, Kansas
