1? 18? Check, check! Short reads this month and I am halfway through House of Dreams as well. #bookspin
This HF story about an Irish mill girl who just moved to America is eye opening and would make a great Shared Reading story. Tie it in to history or geography! Discussions in the classroom will thrive from this story!

Reading a little old school YA today and loved this quote. Sure most book lovers can relate to this at some point in their lives!
