For the past six years I have taken my stories into schools, hauling my canoe, paddles, camping gear, and slides into school auditoriums and cafeterias to talk about rivers and keeping journals for writing adventure books.
Rivers are living mysteries.
They link the past to the future. They inspire adventure and peace. Most of these teachers are unaware of other teachers in similar grades studying the same rivers. I thought a resource for river information for schools on the Web might help. Through RiverResource, Susan and I discovered Rivers of Life.
