| Night of the Spadefoot Toads by Bill Harley |
I'm having a hard time finishing Spadefoot Toads. My district adopted a set of books that we are required to read with our students next year, as part of a new Common Core reading program called ReadyGen. It has it's nice qualities. I guess I just don't like being told what to read, just like my students!
What are you reading, friends?
Ah, the Lunch Lady book looks so fun! Thank you for sharing about it. Now that I saw your 5 out of 5 stars, I feel even more compelled to get it.
ReplyDeleteIt is just a super fun series! It's not hard to get a 5 out of 5 from me, when a book is enjoyable. I'll be excited to hear what you think.
DeleteGreat choices! I LOVE the Lunch Lady series! I think you will really enjoy Fangbone- lots of my third graders did!
ReplyDeleteI am glad to hear they liked it. I feel like Fangbone has a very clever humor.
DeleteOh, I always forget about Fangbone! I have one or two in my collection that I need to find--it is a new for me series and I have only read one of them so I need to get back to it. Thanks for the reminder!
ReplyDeleteThey make me laugh! Glad you'll reconnect with them. I have also only read the first one so far.
ReplyDeleteHooray for Lunch Lady!!!! Jarrett has a new book out or coming out soon called Platypus Police Squad, it's a novel with some artwork throughout but not a graphic novel. Super fun, too. Fangbone looks like fun. Great to meet you at nErDcamp! I never feel like I have enough time to visit with everyone. Glad to see you linking up! :)
