Writers Corner features two grade three essays from Cedar Rapids students Amanda Dunn of Wright Elementary and Peter Schinsing of Erskine Elementary. Amanda dwells on Christmas imagery and holiday scenes while Peter recalls snow activities, skating, and warming by mom with hot chocolate.
A softly described winter scene shows snow piling into drifts that trap people as flurries fall and the cold air blankets streets.
Neil Lomax has lifted the spirits of St. Louis Cardinals fans. Last year the quarterback threw for 4614 yards, the third highest mark in NFL history, and he has been with the Cardinals for five years. He now holds nearly every team passing record and attended Portland State. During the off-season he helped run a football camp in Italy with Laurie, his wife.
Questions from readers cover the blue whale as the largest animal ever, at about 95 feet and 150 tons, and the piano name origin from the Italian pianoforte meaning soft and loud. The Mini Page invites letters for a chance to win a Mini Page T shirt.
