NEWS FROM EAST BLAWENBURG

OFFICIAL NEWSLETTER

 

News from East Blawenburg is the name of my author's newsletter. Why? Because that's where I live! Hardly anyone knows were it is. While it's been a village for over 200 years, it is not a municipality. It's a postal designated place that is within a much larger township. It's size is about one square mile.

I will soon publish the first newsletter, which will appear on this website. 

If you subscribe to the site, you will get all the features on the site for free and receive notifications of new blogs and newsletters.

Ajax Bigelow’s Science Journal Stuff is a lively and clever introduction to science that makes learning feel approachable and genuinely fun. Ajax’s humorous voice his resistance to the assignment and his constant attempts to stay out of detention create a narrator that middle grade readers will instantly relate to. By framing core science concepts through short journal entries classroom mishaps and everyday middle school dynamics the book succeeds in teaching without ever feeling like a textbook.
