Hey Everyone!
So we have this thing called declamation at our school where everyone has to memorize a poem and perform it... it's a competition. There are three rounds: classroom, semifinals, and finals...The finals round is in front of the entire school and it is quite a big event. Two of our library club members: Dorothy Gale and Anne Shirley were in the finals! I thought you might like to see their poems, which are both fascinating..and they were performed amazingly!
