I love your lede! Everything looks like it suits the book so well. I really enjoyed the way you presented the theme, and explained that the audience is middle school aged children. I believe this is a theme that students would really be able to relate to. I remember reading a book, Night, by Elie Wiesel, when I was in 7th grade and the…[Read more]

I find it interesting that you thought it was boring when you read it but your middle schoolers enjoyed it! I understand what you mean! I believe older students may not enjoy reading this book as much as students in upper elementary/middle school. However, overall I believe the concept and idea behind this book and the themes it has…[Read more]

I enjoyed your AST! It was very informative and detailed! I think this book would be great to integrate into a SS lesson about WW2 and it’s effects (especially living in Germany). I’m sure students would be able to take away some lessons from this novel as well!

I was a bit confused because your recommendation was for The House of the Scorpion (which I loved!) and your AST was about Dear Martin. Dear Martin seems like such a cool book! I love the way your lede captures the audience’s attention and makes them want to find out more, just like a news article usually does! I am going to check it out! 🙂

This seems like such an interesting book! For some reason, while looking at your AST and the synopsis you provided reminds me about a piece I read earlier–The Yellow Wallpaper by Charolette Perkins Gilman. The vague explanation in addition to the descriptive details allowed for readers to make inferences of the writing piece, like you…[Read more]

I wonder what made the author think about writing this book. I love how you can pair two things (which make an odd pairing) and are able to connect it to a common and relevant theme!

I agree–I feel as if though it is really important for students to be able to have the discussions amongst themselves. This really sticks with a student, even after the lesson and they can take some ideas away from it!

I agree, I do think that this book is great for kids of all ages!

Thank you! I definitely think it’s a great book to show that people can come together despite their differences! 🙂

Hi all! The link above will take you to my AST! 🙂

A little background on my book, The Wild Robot, by Peter Brown. I recommend this book to anyone in grades level as young as upper elementary school, all the way to high school! I truly enjoyed…[Read more]

It was the first book that got me interested in reading and had me “travel to a different world” while I was reading!

Never thought of visiting the beach during the winter but the view must have been awesome!

I remember reading and rereading that book throughout my sophomore year! 🙂
