About Cherry Street 58493: Stories From Winfield, North
Cherry Street 58493 Cherry Street 58493 is a collection of stories about the neighbors and the students in the fictional small town of Winfield, North Dakota, set in the year 1966. The authorship of these Cherry Street 58493 stories is what makes this book so unique. These fictional "small town North Dakota" stories are written by the real small town North Dakota English students from Wing, North Dakota (zip code 58494, one digit removed from fictional Winfield's zip code), and by their real English teacher. Cherry Street first introduces you to Gavin, the 8th grade paperboy for The Bismarck Tribune in Winfield. Readers then meet a group of neighbors on Gavin's Cherry Street paper route. After the initial stories introducing these newspaper subscribers, Wing's 11th & 12th grade student authors share additional stories about these neighbors and their relationships with each other. Wing's 6th, 7th & 8th grade students write as if they are Winfield's fictional 7th graders, whose English assignment is to write an animal story. Wing's 9th & 10th grade students write as Winfield's fictional 8th grade class, whose assignment is to write a short story as if they are the authors in a new collection of short stories in their school library which, according to the writing prompt given them by their Winfield English teacher, is enchanted, making it a place where the library books come to life at night and tell their stories to each other. The real student authors from Wing, and their real English teacher, who narrates and edits this group project, invite you to meet the people of Winfield, North Dakota, and to enjoy their stories and the stories that they tell in Cherry Street 58493.
