​Mrs. D'Amelio recommends "Hatchet".

"I learned of this book when I first started teaching. I read it with my very first class! I love the excitement and adventure of this book! I read it every year and I still get that thrill of what's going to happen next! I would imagine what I would do, how I would react, how I would survive if I were Brian. The themes and life lessons are endless with this book.

If you love the show Survivor, you will love this book!"

​Why does Ms. Wyrsch love "James and the Giant Peach"?

"I loved listening to my teacher read this book to our class. I would get lost in my imagination envisioning James on his grand adventure with all his friends in the giant peach! It is a funny, scary, and adventurous book all in one."

Happy birthday to first grade teacher, Ms. Cillian! May your day be filled with Stuart Little - like adventures. ​

Mrs. Harris recommends Mrs. Piggle Wiggle. "It was about a lady who knew how to cure children of common childhood "diseases" like tattling, not picking up toys, going to bed late, etc. and it was very easy to related to as a child."

This one might be even more fun for the parent than the kid! At least it has made me chuckle a bunch.
