START THINKING ABOUT SUMMER READING!

What kids recommend — “Rapunzel’s Revenge,” “Here There Be Monsters,” “Twilight” (if you haven’t already read it), “Need,” “Hunger Games,”  “Chains,” “The Seer of Shadows,” “Peeled,” “The Penderwicks on Gardam St.,” “Nic Bishop Frogs,” “Waiting for Normal,”  and….. check the MSBA list found at http://www.windham.lib.me.us/msbapl.htm Enjoy!

If you are baby-sitting this summer, try some of these: anything by Mo Willems or Ezra Jack Keats, and “My Dog is as Smelly as Dirty Socks,” “Bob and Otto,” “The End,” “Glass Slipper, Gold Sandal” or anything from the Chickadee list found at: http://chickadeeaward.org/sneakpeak10.html

What books are you reading?

If you don’t have time to hang out in the library, you can always — Blog with other students about your reading on: Dogeared Blog
