WOW Reads: S3, E1 - MSRAP Reads Miracle by Karen S. Chow
Manage episode 446838161 series 3438747
Join the Worlds of Words Center Middle School Reading Ambassadors (MSRAP) as we recap our experience around Miracle by Karen S. Chow.
In this episode, we discuss...
- Everyone needs an editor -- and multiple kinds! SO to the copy editor who led Chow to her eventual decision to have the characters play The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild throughout Miracle.
- Relationships and mind reading and how we can short ourselves and those around us when we start to guess what other people are thinking.
- And Rebecca gets corrected by Emaline. Chow says, "Oh, yeah, yes, yes, yes, many, many times," when asked if it made her sad writing a book about her father. You can't get anything past these Middle School Reading Ambassadors!
We are grateful to Karen for opening up to us. That was "really cool."
