It's Monday What Are You Reading Dec. 3, 2012

Please visit the amazing blog: Teach Mentor Texts 
who host this terrific meme each week. 


Here is what I finished this week.


Wild Wings by Gill Lewis


Out of My Mind 
by Sharon Draper
Simply amazing with an ending I didn't expect.
 


Oh No! by Candace Fleming and Eric Rohmann
Because it looked so cute...and it was.


And Two great non-fiction picture books. 

Ocean Sunlight-How Tiny Plants Feed the Seas.  
I found it fascinating and learned a lot.


UnBEElievables 
by Douglas Florian    
A unique combination of non-fiction poetry and expository text.

  1. I'm trying to remember if I saw UnBEElievables earlier this year. I don't know if I did. Must get to B&N to check it out soon. (Especially in light of my informational poetry post of last week.)

  2. You'd like it. I learned a lot and it has great illustrations.

  3. Ocean Sunlight does look gorgeous! Didn't realize it was a Molly Bang book. Out of my Mind was our first book club book this year. I had kids rereading it - they loved it so much!

  5. I put Wild Wings on my TBR list; it looks like a nice story, Gigi! I've read UnBEElievables. Florian is really good with the different non-fiction topics, isn't he? And the "Oh, No" does look fun. Thanks!
