Maddie on Things!!

This Friday we will have two very special guests at Hawthorne Elementary,  Maddie, a sweet-tempered, rescued coonhound and her owner, Theron.  Theron Humphrey is a photographer and has traveled the world taking pictures of his companion Maddie. Maddie stands on everything... inspiring his book Maddie on Things. We are so lucky that we get to meet these two! In their honor we will be collecting animal food all week long!
