Lee Bennett Hopkins previously wrote about OCTOBER MOURNING: A SONG FOR MATTHEW SHEPARD, by Leslйa Newman, Candlewick 2012 .

I wanted to invite y'all to listen to this new recording of Leslйa Newman sharing the backstory, research, and even reading one of the poems from this book that I believe Lee accurately described as "important, haunting, heartfelt, and never-to-be-forgotten".

Warm, well-wishes to all.

I cannot rave enough over Leslea Newman's OCTOBER MOURNING (Candlewick). An important, haunting, heartfelt, never-to-be-forgotten book of poetry for young adults.
