This one came from Connie, who I also call my maybe cousin. We both have Rowes (earlier was Rau), in her case Roes in our family trees. Probably means nothing, but we like to think it might. Connie has a great sense of humor and sends along a lot of good e-mails. Here is her most recent message:

"Green Spots on the Wall" by Pickham and Flickham
I'm with Clara, I have some that I couldn't possibly post.
Lots of fun.
Love these! And Rebecca, the sequel to that one is:
"Yellow River" by Noe Dent.
These are great. The only ones I can remember aren't really appropriate for print. Oops, I wasn't supposed to admit that.
Hm, I didn't see the popular book, "Race to the Outhouse," by Willie Makeit. Illustrated by Betty Wont.
(I hope this comment goes through. Blogger died when I tried to write it, initially!)
I forgot that we are also maybe cousins. My grandfather was Howard Meade Rowe.
Anyway… good essays. Shall we add:
"How I found the sport team for me" by Wanda Rowe?
Excellent reading material.
