No Girl is an Island



No man is an Island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the Continent, a part of the main; John Donne

Abigail created this salt dough island for a project at school after reading "Call It Courage." She was very imaginative, and did most of the design and work herself.  The trees were straws, wrapped in jute and topped with fake leaves. She had a tiny lime tree and banana tree.  The lagoon even boasted a miniature gray shark fin. I was impressed with how she painted the salt dough in varying shades of green.  Great job, Abi G.
