There's been a lot of sad news this week--the shootings in Arizona, LK Madigan's sad announcement about her cancer, e-piracy, etc. There were also the ALA awards, in which Jordan Sonnenblick's book After Ever After won an award. I haven't read that book yet, but my library does have his book Drums, Girls, and Dangerous Pie, about a boy whose little brother gets leukemia. The point of this book is a good one to remember when it feels like things are horrible and you can't change them: don't despair over what you can't change. Find something you CAN change, and do it.

Sounds like a good thing to keep in mind.
