Peace, Locomotion

The sequel to this book, titled Peace, Locomotion was written in 2009 by Jacqueline Woodson. It is a comprised of letters to his sister, who was separated from him after the death of their parents. He finally begins to settle in with his foster family. He decides to write everything down from his childhood. Lonnie reflects on family, loss, love, and peace, things that will captivate readers of all ages. Also, the same activities used for Hole in My Life would be used for this book. Additionally, I would use this book to do some poetry with my students.

The Locomotion series is where I really plan to get in depth with them in their writing. I will have them write from the point of view of different charactersa1a as well as write as the main character. I'm excited about how much my students will enjoy these narrative writing experiences!
