Its Monday! What Are You Reading?!?!

 Books I Read Last Week


This first nations fantasy has been one of the books I've been wanting to read since last week.  I enjoyed this transition into a fantasy world that was made believable and was described so vividly.  


This book is on our state book award list and I've needed to read it to have a good way to book talk it.  It parallels with The Barren Grounds too, so it was a busy week for fantasies for me.  I really appreciated the short chapters in this book.

Books I Am Reading


A departure from children's literature on this one.  I'm reading this for a book club with former co-working friends.  I read it's prequel The Bean Trees a few weeks ago, so I'm ready for some light reading.

Its Monday! What Are You Reading?!

 Books I Read Last Week


Y'all!! The way Paulsen writes about his own childhood without ever identfying himself or exuding the sense of a rightly earned pity is astounding.  I still find myself heartbroken for this boy, even knowing the successes that came his way.  I read through a combination of audiobook and text.  Both formats were good.

I confess I did not read most of the song lyrics.  I did read the rest of the text and all photo captions.  A nice look into Parton's past and her impact on country music and popular culture.


If you are looking for a picture book about seasons this should be added to your go-to list.  A quick engaging read aloud.  My kindergarten group and myself enjoyed this fun read.

What I'm Currently Reading


I just started this book on Sunday.  I have seen it popping up on my twitter feed from multiple people.  I'm excited to get into this story this week.

What I Will Read

I'm not sure what I'm going to be reading next.  I've got a busy week ahead with trainings and three sections of an inquiry unit with 3rd grade.
