It's also the first time I've ever read all of the Newbery winners before the announcement. (Pays off reading over 1000 books in a year)

My 4th and 5th grade classes come to the library maybe once a month, because they're so busy fitting in everything in their curriculum. It's so frustrating. If they don't get to school early enough to get books, they don't have the opportunity during the day.

I will pretty much read anything with a Celia Krampien cover

If it is out of print and not available through a local library or as an eBook, I would say it's okay.

Just finished the Heroes of Olympus series, which was one of my goals. The next is to get through volumes 2 and 3 of Hooky, so they can be back with students after the break.

My solution to the "problem" of kids only wanting to check out Dog Man was to get more Dog Man books.

They're always an option, so kids aren't so frantic to get their hands on them and are more likely to branch out. And, if they're not interested in anything else, Dog Man books are available.

Board games are beneficial for kids in so many ways. I wish I could use them more, but my principal doesn't like the optics. 🙃

One stood behind me while I finished reading so she could check the book out immediately, and another asked me to email his parents to add it to his Christmas list.
