My Life as a Book
My Life as a Book | Janet Tashjian
5 posts | 6 read | 3 to read
Summer's finally here, and Derek Fallon is looking forward to pelting the UPS truck with water balloons, climbing onto the garage roof, and conducting silly investigations. But when his parents decide to send him to Learning Camp, Derek's dreams of fun come to an end. Ever since he's been labeled a "reluctant reader," his mom has pushed him to read "real" books-something other than his beloved Calvin & Hobbes. As Derek forges unexpected friendships and uncovers a family secret involving himself (in diapers! no less), he realizes that adventures and surprises are around the corner, complete with curve balls. My Life as a Book is a 2011 Bank Street - Best Children's Book of the Year.

#backtoschool this year for me means (among other things) coteaching 3rd grade for the first 5wks of school until my colleague who coteaches this class returns from maternity leave. Pictured: the books I get to read before we start #readinggroups on September 7th. 📚 #middlegrade #atleasttheyshouldbequickreads? & #goodforshortattentionspans?

In other news, I got my own office this year! #akawhereillreadwhenicantwalkandread 😉 #teachersoflitsy

My son (10), gave this one 5/5 stars ✨. I didn't read it, but as a mom I give it 5/5 too because it made my son bring very interesting conversations to 📖 hour. 🐬🐳🦄🐸💕 #juniorreaders
