Hooked on Books
Certain children's books like the Harry Potter Series, the Captain UnderPants Series, Dr. Seuss book's, Judith Viorst's book's seem to captivate young readers and start them on the road to being lifelong readers. As teachers our job is to Hook our students on books. So let's use this blog space to share books that we have found have worked, made a difference with a child, hooked him/her on books. Tell your story of a student and the book that made a difference here. Hurty Feelings by Helen Lester is "A winning story that perfectly captures a preschooler's fears of independence" My Hippie Grandmother a fine book about grandchild/grandmother relationships by Reeve Lindbergh both of these books are excellent for preschool or kindergarten.Posted by jean at 6:10 PM | Comments (3)
