Gary Hogg visits Wilson's Class

Gary Hogg (my cousin Emily's husband) spoke to Wilson's class today.  He is write children's books, and travels all over talking to students about writting. 

 He started out tell an exerpt of his book about Beautiful Beuhla, costume and all!
 Wilson, Luke, and another boy got to help him act out the story by being a lion, gorilla, and elephant at the zoo.

 Gary then spoke to the children about writting, and using descriptive words to tell a story.  The children listened and participated intently.
 Wilson got to give each of his classmates one of Gary's books, and then Gary wrote in each book for each child.  It was fun to see the kids read what Gary had written to them!
Now we are off to watch Wilson's first grade program!
