Judith Viorst

One of the authors who spoke at the National Book Festival was Judith Viorst. She wrote Alexander and The Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day. She has three sons and the youngest is named Alexander. Have you ever read the book?

Her current book is titled Lulu and the Brontosaurus. It is about a girl who wants a Brontosaurus for a pet and her adventures in trying to find one. Ms. Viorst read the first several chapters to us and it sounds really funny!

Write a few sentences about your pet. Here is my example.

My Golden Retriever is named Heath and he just turned three years old last Saturday. He loves to play with his friend, Grady, and go for long walks with me. He is very lovable!
