Where is Huckleberry Finn?

Find Huckleberry Finn in this portrait of Mark Twain.
Here is Huckleberry; he is resting the back of his head on Mr. Twain's shoulder. He has a hat on and his torso is bent forward. I have a bunch of these puzzles to put up yet. My youngest found him pretty quick. As I said, it helps to print these puzzles out and spin them around. Good luck with the next one!

murals painted by young students

      I took the following photographs of the student murals in the elementary school where I work. I am not yet sure about when the murals were painted. I work with kids here in an after school program and have yet to speak with someone who knows the original history of the murals. I thought my readers might be interested in them, however. These are so bright and cheerful. Perhaps some of you may be thinking about doing a similar project with your young students?
