It’s Monday! What are you Reading? is a weekly blog hop hosted by Kellee and Ricki of Unleashing Readers. The original IMWAYR, with an adult literature focus, was started by Sheila at Book Journeys and is now hosted by Kathryn at The Book Date.
Head over to Unleashing Readers to join the link-up and share your reading!
I returned from the National Book Festival with sweet memories and new books. It was nice to see so many authors and illustrators again and attend their sessions. What was even more fun was seeing the children’s faces as they met authors they love! Wonderful!
I’ll be reading many books in the next couple of weeks, but today was International Dot Day (The Dot, by Peter H. Reynolds, is the first in the Creatrilogy.) I loved watching students stop by the library to “make their mark.”
I also pulled some books in the library that are recommended reads, from the Seasons of Literacy planner (by JoEllen McCarthy and Julia E. Torres) I received recently. I love this planner!
At the end of last week, we had a class visit and the teacher read aloud to us. Fractured fairy tales are so much fun! We read The Wolf’s Story: What Really Happened to Little Red Riding Hood by Toby Forward and Izhar Cohen, I Am So Strong by Mario Ramos, and the class checked out The True Story of the Three Little Pigs by Jon Scieszka and Lane Smith.
Finally, it’s a HAPPY BOOK BIRTHDAY to Josh Funk! Who Donut? A Holiday Mystery is out now! Who stole Agatha Crispy’s book? This “Who-Done-It” book is a deliciously diverting read aloud. So many suspects! Can you guess? I’ll bet you can’t!
We are having a great time in the library this back-to-school season! It’s Monday! What are YOU reading?
