Donna Guthrie - Meet Me at the Corner - Virtual Field Trips for Kids

I'm always surfing for new kid-friendly sites and was delighted to find that kidlit author Donna Guthrie has created a really cool one. Meet Me At the Corner - Virtual Field Trips for Kids is one impressive site.  It is loaded with interesting subjects and interviews. I asked Donna if she'd give us an interview for the blog.

How did you come up with the concept of virtual field trips for kids?

I was in the process of getting my MFA in Children's and Young Adult Writing from the Vermont College Program, when it came to me that there might be a new way to write nonfiction for the 21st Century Learner.
