Mr. Popper's Penguins by Richard and Florence Atwater (RL 5.6, AR 3 pts)

Mr. Popper's Penguins is an adorable Newberry Honor Book.  We had fun reading it in class.  I can't wait until the movie comes out.  What was your favorite part of the story?

The Sister's Grimm: Fairy Tale Detectives by Michael Buckley


I love the way Michael Buckley added fairytale characters and props in this adventurous story.  What I like about this story is the adventure that the main characters have.  You never know what is right around the corner.

The BFG, By Roald Dahl, RL 4.8, Pts 6.0

 I love this story and the friendship of the BFG and Sophie.  I wouldn't have wanted to be in giant country.  What about you? 

Disgusting Bugs by Connie Colwell Miller, AR 3.2, .05 pts

I don't know about you but I think the dung bugs are pretty cool.

Spiderwick Chronicle: The Seeing Stone, By Holly Black and Tony DiTerlizzi





What do you think about the creature from the lake?  That was definitely not in the movie!

Spiderwick Chronicles: The Field Guide, By Holly Black and Tony DiTerlizzi


Wow!  I can't imagine moving into a house where it sounded as if there was something living behind the walls.  EEEEK!  What about you?
