one of my favorite books--as you know if you've read my profile--is holes, by louis sachar. i'm currently reading it to my fifth grade class. not to give anything away, but the other day, one of my students made a comment (during the part where the classroom teacher, ms. barlow, kisses sam, "the onion man") that had never occurred to me:
wouldn't sam's breath and body stink since he's always eating onions?
funny! i love 5th graders!

He probably sweated onions, too...the whole classroom must've smelled once the leaks were fixed! :-)
By the way, do you know Holes is listed as your favorite book twice over?
oops. guess i just like it _that_ much!
