“Hi, my name is Ty. I’m 9 years old and writing this blog post for my mom today.
Even though I like a lot of books, I think TOUCHING THE SURFACE is my favorite cause it has so much funny characters and emotions in it. Trevor is my favorite character because he has these funny T-shirts and he is always interesting. I think you should read it because it stands out from other books and if you’re interested in the afterlife and coming back and stuff you’ll like this book a lot. There is also a lot of good cliff hangers and you can’t go to bed wondering what happened–so you might have to stay up late to read it. I think my mom is a really good writer and even though I like TOUCHING THE SURFACE I think her next one is going to be even better.”
*This blog post was dictated by Ty’s mom. When she was done she spent the rest of the day feeling warm and fuzzy.
**I swear I did not double his allowance to say that–he never gets allowance anyway–his room is too messy.
Have you shared your writing with someone special in your life? What did they think? Will you do it again? More boys to come at a later date. <3
