Clover Twig and the Magical Cottage

How's this for excellent? I already have read a book that could be a good choice for fourth and fifth graders!

That book is: Clover Twig and the Magical Cottage by Kaye Umansky.

Read Roger: Love Letter to Japan

Check out this blog entry by Roger Sutton for an interesting bit of information!

I was not surprised to hear that people are in the market for middle grade fiction, considering the difficult time our committee has had finding good choices to read out loud to the fourth and fifth graders.

I've quietly started looking around for books we could choose next year, and hope we'll find it an easier quest.

Note to self: must read The Incorrigibles.
