Attached you will see some samples for last year's fourth graders and a copy of the order form. Even if you DO NOT want to purchase a copy of the book, we do still need to note returned and signed as "No" so your child's work can still be apart of the book. Please get a hold of your child's teacher if you have any further questions.
