In Pictures and in Words-Chapter 10

Chapter 10: Tone, In Pictures and in Words

Katie Wood Ray reminds us in this chapter that it is not always what you say, but it's how you say it.

Long Night Moon by Cythnia Rylant is a book about 12 different types of moons throughout the year. Lovely! Her beautiful prose matches the tone of the illustrations. A wistful meandering.

Thank you Mrs. Jump for hosting this week's chapter!
Please stop by her blog to read more about Chapter 10!
