RAotW #44
Time for a first-ever OWL Blog Word of the Day™. And the word of the day is… palindrome! It’s a number, word, or phrase that reads the same backwards as forwards. I bring it up because this is the 44th edition of Reader Art of the Week, and 44 is a palindrome. Cool! But enough about palindromes. On with the art!
This week’s art comes to us courtesy of blog reader Victoria. Check it out:
Nice, huh? I don’t know about you guys, but I really love the power photography has in capturing and sharing moments. I grew up near a pond, and this shot reminds me just how cool it was to spot a frog, snake, or tadpole in and around the water.
Don’t you also get the impression that Victoria waded all the way into the water to take her shot? That’s dedication! Many thanks for sending it in, Victoria.
And that’s it for me today. Check back here tomorrow for my impressions of the new Harry Potter movie, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2!

Wow….. That’s really awesome 🙂
Thanks for the nice comments regarding my picture. I took the picture while camping in Kingston. I was with family catching frogs in a pond.
Hey Victoria!
Nice picture!
What is the “green confetti” looking stuff the frog is sitting in?
Really cool, Victoria!
Epic! Thats really awesome Victoria!!

I have a question for Craig!
How can you enter a RAotW? What should I post on RAotW?
Thanks,
Selena
Hi Selena! You enter RAotW by emailing your art (stories, poems, photos, drawings…) to me at owlblog@owlkids.com. A little while back I made a special request for comics, so if you have any of those of your own creation, please send them my way! That said, I look forward to anything you have to send!
Thanks Craig! I made something for RAotW and I will submit it really soon!
I hope it will get in! When will be the next OWL mailbag?
Guess what. I’m typing this from my IPod!

Hey Craig… I was reading the owl vault section…
The picture of you next to the WEEE Sculpture was pretty cool.
I never actually realized that you would look exactly like the craigs blog icon.
That’s funny, Sunil! I’m glad my real image lives up to Michael Cho’s illustration!
