Reading – THE END?

These are some of the fiction books I took out of student book boxes while cleaning up the room this year. . . along with many copies of Dogman.

I didn’t know packing up the room would be difficult. Then, I went into my “time warp” classroom. The calendar still said March. The lessons and materials were ready to go for the week of March 16, 2020 – which turned out to be the first week

Such a delightful book and true to life. I felt like I knew these characters. I highly recommend it for middle-grade readers. Note that the main characters have experienced trauma because their mother passed away.
