Monday: In anticipation of an author visit to our school library by April Henry, I booktalked her only book in my classroom library, The Body in the Woods.
Tuesday, I chose Kenneth Oppel’s The Boundless, just because.
Thursday, I booktalked Flora and Ulysses by Kate DiCamillo. A lot of kids had already read it, but they all loved it.
Friday: I learned from a student that she’d seen the movie and TV versions of The True Meaning of Smekday by Adam Rex, but never read the book. I had to remedy that!
