1987 Catherine's Letter -Sep.19

Saturday
Sept. 19, 1987
Dear Mother & Dad,

Hi!  Thought you might like to see this item I enclosed.  They (the Marketing Dept.) "interviewed" me early in August.  

The big events coming up here include Wendy's birthday and Roberta's return which will occur on the same day.  I'm going to take part of the afternoon off as Wendy is going to have some friends over after school and we'll go out for pizza.  Following by Pioneer Girls for Wendy and "Meet the Teacher" for us.  Wendy has reluctantly agreed to postpone her official birthday dinner at Bobby McGee's until Sid's return, thus stretching out the celebration!

Wendy's other news of course is her selection of a band instrument – the trombone!

Gerry and I are playing golf this afternoon.  I'm sure Wendy wishes Roberta were here so they could do something.  Fall weather seems to be settling in – the temp. hasn't been over 100º all week.

We are getting busy at the library with lots of school groups requesting tours.  And we are also scheduling visits to the schools to do storytelling and booktalks, etc.

Do you have any books by Barbara Park in the school library?  She writes for 4-6th graders.  Her latest is The Kid in the Red Jacket about a boy who moves from Arizona to Massachusetts.  She lives in Phoenix!

Love,
Catherine, Gerry
& Wendy
