Bookworm Buzz

My 499th post is all about books and I think that is just PERFECT!!  I have been back to the library and found some great chapter books and picture books to share with all of you. Remember, you can use your library card to put books on hold or to dwonload books onto your tablet.  Let me know if you try this and how it went.  I am going to finish my day with Amulet #6.  I might do some housework too! :)

I loved everything about this book, the text, the illustrations, the afterword.  What a great way to introduce students to a musical biography and The Rolling Stones.  A great mentor text in MANY ways.
