Well-known children’s author Helen Ketteman visited Lovejoy Elementary School on February 4 to entertain us with her stories and share information about the writing process.  Mrs. Ketteman has written 20 books including Bubba the Cowboy Prince, Armadilly Chili and The Three Little Gators. All of our students from Kindergarten through Fifth Grade enjoyed listening to her storytelling and learning about her methods as a writer.  Did you know that one of her books took 4 years to complete and went through 76 revisions?  Writing takes patience, hard work and a stubborn resolve to see it through.  We were so pleased that Mrs. Ketteman was able to visit our school and share her delightful books with us.  Thank you to the Lovejoy Elementary PTA and Mrs. Barajas for your generous support and help with making this visit possible.
