My VERY FAVORITE thing to learn about is Egypt. I love reading of Ancient Egypt, as well as more current times. I love anything Egypt. I dream of going there, and going down the Nile on a felucca. I might even become an archaeologist!  So, I asked my friend Debbie - who is one of my favorite authors - a
special geography question...How Long is the Nile River?

Do you know Debbie Glade? She wrote the funniest book I have ever read, called The Travel Adventures of Lilly P. Badilly: Costa Rica.
Lilly is a millipede who sings - and travels! The book has a cd with
great original music on it. I listen to it every day and morning, too.
In February, we will have a book review here about it.

On Lilly Badilly's website, http://www.lillybadilly.com/asklilly.htm, you can ask Lilly a geography question. They are all on youtube and Lilly is pretty funny. Debbie even wears a King Tut hat. COOL!

The question I asked was, how long is the Nile River?  Here is Lilly P. Badilly's (and Debbie's) answer.

Thanks, Lilly and Debbie!

And head to Lilly's website and ask your OWN geography questions! I love to learn.
