Enjoying the breeze and finally getting to continue some reading, as the students play in the "sandbox". Where the Red Fern Grows. #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

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
