Chapter 1
Anna passes the torch of journaling on to Caleb. Just like another story we read, "Nothing ever happens on 92th Street", Caleb feels at first he has nothing to write about. Do you have a journal, secret diary, or imaginary friend you correspond with? If yes, what advice can you give Caleb? If no, what skills have you learned that you can pass on to him, to become a successful descriptive journalist, recording the mundane, and also extreme events of everyday life!
