I would love to hear any insights or knowledge on the characters, setting and any history that was turned into the marvelous fictional world of Adenville!

I now read the books to fifth graders in the classroom I work in, and try to put pictures of the past in their minds. Pictures like a water closet, or an old tomé basketball game.

She was surprised to be told that a small corner of the library was reserved for his books. After I left she asked if she could take some books home and read them. <br /><br />Now that I think of it I should mention this site to museums. Thanks for the idea.<br /><br />CarrieCarriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03636760487509756647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8048050257207706154.post-43865116043786922902009-11-04T21:09:41.224-08:002009-11-04T21:09:41.224-08:00Carrie, a couple of years ago my wife and I visite...Carrie, a couple of years ago my wife and I visited Silver Plume, Colorado, which is a prominent site in Uncle Will & The Fitzgerald Curse. It's a charming half town half ghost town with a B&B and small shops and some homes. Unfortunately, the employees at the town museum had never heard of Fitzgerald or the novel. That surprised me.<br /><br />Doug GibsonPlan9Crunchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04818205539289836323noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8048050257207706154.post-77853588099707007742009-10-26T09:14:29.273-07:002009-10-26T09:14:29.273-07:00Hi Carrie, I found your website and blog while res...Hi Carrie, I found your website and blog while researching John Fitzgerald. I read the books over and over growing up, and am now reading them with my children.<br /><br />Thanks for all the great info! Do you know if Fitzgerald had any children? I just thought it would be neat to send them a note.<br /><br />Have a great day!Toddhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04891399196853862545noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8048050257207706154.post-89193746840789503232009-10-24T19:32:06.897-07:002009-10-24T19:32:06.897-07:00We'll have to stop by Price sometime.
