A Pocket of Time goes to Colchester school libraries

The Elizabeth Bishop Society of Nova Scotia is donating copies of A Pocket of Time: The Poetic Childhood of Elizabeth Bishop to several Colchester County schools: Great Village Elementary, West Colchester Consolidated, Chiganois Elementary and Debert Elementary. Laurie Gunn has sent me these photos of the copies in question. Nice to see the book is already receiving some attention in the local press (check out the link in the News section.) Rita Wilson and Emma FitzGerald had a day with the students at Great Village Elementary School yesterday. I am sure Rita and Emma will be visiting more schools with this enchanting and important book.
