I saved her big sister’s Lost Tools of Writing ANI charts and essays from when Norah, now Challenge 4, was in Challenge A. All year, Avril, in Challenge A and doing her first year of Lost Tools, has been quietly taking them down and reading them as she works through her own issues and essays in all the same books. It’s almost like she’s been time traveling back to talk to Norah when was twelve-thirteen. Sometimes she laughs at her big sister’s thinking and writing. But I warn her that Adele will be reading her ANIs and essays someday, too. This has been a fun, unexpected, sweet, special part of this school year.
