What an exciting accomplishment when our mighty readers start crossing the Forty Book Challenge finish line! Finishing at this time of year means they averaged about two books per week since school started. Imagine the adventures their minds have taken. Reaching forty on the same day were Ethan and Lily! Woohoo! We interviewed them to find out their reading thoughts.
Each student who finishes gets SENT TO THE HEAD OF SCHOOL’S OFFICE! Hee hee.
Lily: I wanted to tell you about my favorite series of books. They are the Magic Tree House books, because Mary Pope Osborne does lots of good telling about what they feel and the words they say. She makes it feel like you are actually doing it with them. I think my favorite one is the first one because it tells how they found the treehouse for the first time. I have learned that with your imagination anything can happen!
Ethan: DC Comic’s Challengers of the Unknown is one of my favorite books right now. It is very adventurous. You can have some fun pretending and having your imagination go wild. To us it’s in our imagination even though it’s a real adventure for them. You can imagine being along with them rescuing people from different dimensions and the strange beasts there. They go around saving people. They help with courage. If you dream about doing great things, you can do normal helping others and be a hero every day.
