Ben Checks In with Sitka Bloggers
Hi Everybody
I've been reading some of your entries. It was really an honor to meet so
many of you and to have you read my books. I'm in Palmer right now visiting
a couple of schools. I'm hoping I can watch the beginning of the Iditarod
Saturday morning before I fly out of Anchorage and south to Portland. You
all live in such a wonderful state, especially out in Sitka.
I love some of your thoughts on Touching Spirit Bear. It always amazes me
how many different insights readers have on Cole Matthews. I sometimes
think that the most wisdom comes from inside of each of you and not from the
book you are reading.
Once again, I really enjoyed my time in Sitka. Be well and keep reading!!!!

Hi Ben, Thank you for coming to Blatchley and sharing your personal insights. After your talk I overheard a student say, " I could have listened to him for hours." Your commitment to teaching youth about bullying is a wonderful support to our programs. Vaya con Dios.
