1000 Books Week Twenty-Eight

17 more sleeps until Christmas! Is anyone else as exciting as I am? How is this flu bug treating everyone? I'm a bit wired from the 24 hours of sleep that I got thanks to my bout of the flu!

Congratulations to Linaya for bringing back her next reading sheet! Keep up the good reading!

Our last Star Reader of the Week was Cody!


This week's Star Reader is Cam! Congratulations!

Our last Book of the Week was "Sprocket's Christmas Tale", a charming look back at a Fraggle Rock favorite!

Our twenty-eight Book of the Week is "Woodland Christmas: Twelve Days of Christmas in the North Woods", by Frances Tyrrell.


 
"In this retelling of the classic Christmas carol The Twelve Days of Christmas, a young bear courts his true love. The 12 gifts that accompany him are wonderful indeed - they are the creatures of the northern woodlands with a magical twist. The calling birds are loons; the lordsa-leaping, moose. And after all the gifts are given, the wedding celebration begins!"
- Scholastic
