So much joy in books makes my heart sing at times. If I had my own classroom, I'd do a class project where we create our own book based on Hi Koo. I don't know how you have time for all these endeavors like the Mock Caldecott. You are so inspirational!Cheriee Weichelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15662398117320256935noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2599471237636371761.post-42319879103910303862015-01-12T20:37:30.936-08:002015-01-12T20:37:30.936-08:00Thanks Crystal, it just is what it is.

I think your middle school students who like realistic fiction will enjoy it. I'm recommending it to fans of Phoebe Stone.

I know that books in that case can be a way to relax, but yeah, concentration is harder. I wish you and your mother the best and hope that you have lots of support from those around you. <br /><br />I too loved Hi, Koo! Pardon Me made me giggle, but yes, the younger readers may not appreciate it as much. ;)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17298600138152463400noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2599471237636371761.post-41046894032825271252015-01-12T19:21:08.072-08:002015-01-12T19:21:08.072-08:00Thank you for opening up, and so sorry for the new...Thank you for opening up, and so sorry for the news about your mother. I recommend finding a group of kids and beginning a read aloud of "The Book with No Pictures." It'll be sure to bring a smile to your face through their reactions.

That final one by Sarah Weeks sounds good for my middle school students. I'm so sorry about your mother. No matter when, it's never easy to be one person at one place and another person doing something very hard. I admire you that you are continuing the job, and still the hurting and the worry is always there. Good wishes to you in this tough time.Linda Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14983144542632353870noreply@blogger.com
