Interpretations

I've told him a hundred times

not to speak to strangers,
but my goldfish
never listens.

They say that goldfish
don't have a good memory.
Mine often forgets where he lives.

I read my students a book called My Goldfish (blogger won't let me underline) by Barroux . The book deals with issues of death and life. Each student was assigned a page from the book and had to re-illustrate the page. The original illustrations for the book are very very simple, so this gave the kids a lot of places to go with their illustrations. These are two of my favorites!
