pickStorytelling just became a whole lot of fun! Excited to share this funny story with the little kids and tell them a story about a little dog that lost his bark! Fun for all ages and beautifully illustrated! This book makes me want to write my own! #UCFSouthLakeLAE3414summerA
Such a cute book about a mischevious boy, Nick and a strong willed teacher, Mrs. Granger who seemed to be at odds with one another, or are they? A really good read. I enjoyed the back and forth battle between the two for it to end on a positive "note.!" #ucfsouthlakeLAE3414SummerA
I love this book. It is one of the very first ones I get to read and it kept me wondering all the time what would happen next. Surprising what Ms. Granger had written in that letter. #ucfsouthlakelae3414summera
Enjoying the breeze and finally getting to continue some reading, as the students play in the "sandbox". Where the Red Fern Grows. #UCFSouthLakeLAE3414SummerA

pickThis book had me hooked from the beginning & I definitely recommend it. The ending wasn't what I expected, I thought Winnie would have acted differently than she did. Although I still enjoyed it! #UCFsouthlakeLAE3414SummerA
My kids love the Wimpy Kid series, so it was time for mom to see what the hype was about. Greg leads the typical life of a middle school student. He has a comical style of sharing his experiences, dodging bullies and hanging out with his friend. As an adult the book was so-so, but I can see the kid appeal. I read the first of the series, but will not continue on with the other books.
P.S. The end made me seriously gag! #UCFSouthLakeLAE3414SummerA
pickWhat better way to read than by the beach? Really helps me escape reality and enjoy reading. Tucking Everlasting by Natalie Babbitt was an excellent read. Left me a little angry at the end, but overall had me hooked since the beginning. One thing I thought about is why Winnie would waste the water on the toad? Why not keep it for herself? Would love to elaborate on this!!!! #UCFsouthlakeLAE3414summerA
Frindle is a great book about a fifth grader, his antics and his war with his no-nonsense teacher, Mrs Granger. I've passed it on to my fourth grader (soon to be fifth) let's just hope she doesn't get any ideas! #UCFSouthLakeLAE3414SummerA
I love how the teacher is passionate about the use of words. The once antagonist, Mrs. Granger, becomes the teacher I want to be! #ucfsouthlakeLAE3414summerA
