While waiting for the Madison folks to officially open the discussion, I was wondering: could we possibly begin this month with the regional literatures of Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama and Florida? I imagine I am not alone in seeking children's lit books from these areas for comfort, teaching, and to a create space in which to think, pray, hope, imagine. I have found it helpful to read what I could find from the library -- books on New Orleans architecture, mostly -- in this long week of worry and longing. It is some sort of balance to all I have read on the internet and heard on the radio.
