Book Recommendations

Image result for reading meme

Dear students,

As a voracious reader, I love discussing books with other lovers of literature. I have joined book clubs, emailed with friends, and sat down over many meals where the conversation turned to what everyone was reading. Books are a part of my life.

I have noticed I have certain friends who never fail to disappoint me with their EXCELLENT recommendations. When recommending a book to me, they tell me what the book is about without giving too much away.

I would like for you to write a book recommendation about a fiction book you love! Be sure to include the book title,  characters, settingand the plot (problem/action). Assume I have not read the book and be sure to edit your work.

Here is my recommendation:

Ida B is about a young girl who lives with her mom and dad on a farm. She is home schooled after an unpleasant experience in kindergarten. She lives a happy life, using her imagination to play on the farm and with her pets. Sadly, her mother gets cancer and Ida B's life is turned upside down. She is heart-broken! She must return to school, where she makes a decision to change into a person with a cold, hard heart. You will love this book is you like character-driven stories and realistic fiction.

I cannot wait to see your recommendations!

Your teacher,
Mrs. Braddy

When some people were looking into their telescope they saw Charlie and his whole family in a elevator. There was a bed in the elevator because his grandparents are very old.
