Last week I read I'm the Biggest Thing in the Ocean by Kevin Sherry to the younger crowd at Thompson. They loved it, especially when we defined the word "brag" and gave Mr. Giant Squid a giant attitude,complete with a snap, a head cock, and arched eyebrows. Of course, like every braggert, he gets his come-uppence when he faces his day at Ninevah (so to speak!), and we learned the meaning of the word "humble". But you can't keep a good giant squid down, and of course, he has the last word, and the kids leave laughing. I heartily recommend it!

Teresa, you mentioned letting your students journal about books your book club is reading. Will you help your students set up accounts they need in order to participate? Do you know what all is involved in setting up accounts? Will you ask for parental permission?
