Topics for classroom discussion and assignments:

• Ann McGovern says that your life is reflected in your writing. She is concerned about the environment and peace in the world. Look for evidence of these concerns in her books and list them.

• The author is fascinated with the underwater world.  Along with others from your class, make an underwater mural, with each student responsible for some kind of underwater life.  He or she will make a illustration of this underwater plant or creature and write a short description of it for the mural.
