Diorama
Jordan had a Diorama project due at school. The project was to use a scene from a Caldecott Medal and Honor Book. Jordan picked "Mirette on the High Wire" by Emily Arnold, a 1993 Caldecott Medal winner. Jordan claims she "LOVES THE STORY"!
I went to Michael's and bought all the supplies. Jordan cut and pasted the sides in her cardboard shoe box and the background to her Diorama. She used Polly Pockets for her people. All was going well until it was time to put the Great Bellini on the "high wire" in the box. Our glue did not stick! Jordan's Daddy left the house at 9:30 PM to go get super glue at the local Wal-greens. He came back and started helping us get the Great Bellini to stick.
