Snicket, Burg, Fletcher - What Are You Reading?

Roaming the halls today led me to Mrs. K-T's literacy class where I visited with C.J. and Colton (Jordan was our camera man).  Our Thursday Feature "What Are You Reading" includes titles by Lemony Snicket, Ann Burg, and Ralph Fletcher.

Have you read any of these books?  Which book sounds most interesting to you?

Cleopatra Rules and Gone-Away Lake

Our new feature for Tuesdays and Thursdays is "What Are You Reading?".  First thing in the morning I visit homerooms and roam the halls asking people what they are reading.  Here is one of today's conversations.

The Leopard Tree

The Leopard Tree is a story about three orphans from Africa who are determined to travel to New York to get a message to the head of the United Nations about the help millions of African children need!  The guide book on their journey to America is “The Wizard of Oz”.  This book will inspire you to make a difference!
