pickMy Sweet Valley reading project continues with this cute one where for an unspecified school break, the second-grade twins get to take home Tinkerbell, the class hamster. Elizabeth is delighted but squeamish Jessica wants nothing to do with the rodent! Cute & fun, a class hamster sounds better than my 2nd grade class that shared a teddy bear named Cuddles—are classes even allowed to share anything like this anymore? Or does this date the series?
so-soAnother for #MiddleGradeMarch! I loved The Indian in the Cupboard when I read it (and its sequels) in 4th/5th grade. (I‘m reluctant to re-read—I‘m skeptical whether they would hold up.) I remember seeing I, Houdini in a list of other books by Lynne Reid Banks, and becoming low-key obsessed with reading it—partly because I loved stories told from an animal character POV, and probably also partly because my library didn‘t have a copy. ⬇️
I‘m still getting valentines and people are still receiving mine INOTHERWORDS holy crap the mail is SLOWWWWW lately. 😵💫

“It is hard to ride a bike without training wheels. You will learn when you are ready.“
This is a great graphic to introduce to kindergarteners or first graders. It teaches students to share with others, even their new toys. Students may even be able to make a personal connection to this if they are learning, or have learned, to ride a bike. It also displays to students that it is okay to accept your friends as they are. Children will enjoy the illustrations in this book, especially when Hedgehog knocks over Harry with his bike.
pick“Do You Like My Bike?“ by Norm Feuti is a graphica novel. This graphica or comic book would be appropriate for kindergarteners. It discusses Hedgehog getting a new bike, but Harry does not want to ride. The illustrations help portray that Hedgehog is riding too fast by having lines behind him to show his speed. It also displays a worried and anxious look on Harry's face showing that he is afraid that Hedgehog might hit him.
