Congrats to the proud father

[Bren In Pots]

No wonder you're proud that's a good achievement, pass on my congrats to your daughter Darcy

[Veggielot]

Congrats, any chance of of a sneak preview?

Come on dude, don't keep us waiting publish the poem on here too.

Who was the driving force, behind getting it published?, my daughter is big time into writing stories at the moment after her school had a visit from 'Anna Wilson'. I think its really good to get your kids into reading and writing from an early age, the ability to read well broadens their minds on so many other subjects.

Congrats to Alarna.

It was run by the school in our county 2 people from this school will have there's published my girl being one of them!

I have no idea what the poem is but they have sent a order form with the certificate so I'm assuming they are using that as the driving for force behind the sales pitch

'fraid so. Although when I looked on their web site they were v keen to stress that poems were included on merit and not as means for selling the anthologies.

Whatever, as one of only two in her school to be included, your daughter has a right to feel proud of herself.

[darcyvuqua]

Thanks guys she will be home from school soon she will be over the moon

[Sheneval]

Brilliant - many congrats

[Tripmeup]
