Spider

This is a barn spider. It’s huge and it’s right outside my kitchen window. I wanted to destroy it’s web and relocate this humongous arachnid – but after my search on the interweb revealed that this is the same kind of spider that Charlotte from Charlotte’s Web is based on… well, I just couldn’t bring myself to do it. I am going to wait until morning – if the web spells out “Big Ryan” then it can stay – otherwise this little non-bug is out of here!

Here we are heading back to school!  Bullying is still a really big topic these days - and for good reason – no one should have to be bullied.  There is another aspect of bullying that we should not overlook and that is children standing up for themselves.  This book handles both sides of the coin very well and is a perfect resource for anyone who is having trouble dealing with with this senstive issue.
