WordWeaver read a science fiction......

book for the first time in a long time. And it was really good! It is THE CLONE CODES by Patricia C. McKissack, Fredrick L. McKissack, and John McKissack. You might say it was a family effort as Patricia and Fredrick are husband and wife, and John is their grown son.

WordWeaver would like to......

.....honor Black History Month with this wonderful book.

WORDWEAVER just read ..........

a graphic novel for the first time. And what a strong tale it told mostly in pictures. The book is THE STORM IN THE BARN by Matt Phelan, a 2010 Scott O'Dell Award for Historical Fiction. This is definitely a book for middle school ages. It is graphic in every sense of the word, the story being told through wonderful illustrations that depict emotion, fear, sadness and more.

WordWeaver enjoyed this.......

book cover imagebook recently. It is CAMILLE MCPHEE FELL UNDER THE BUS by Kristen Tracy. Think of worst things happening, such as having low blood sugar, falling under the school bus, losing your cat and your best friend is moving far away. Well poor Camille McPhee is loaded with all those worst things. But she stays hopeful and works on a positive attitude. Will this help? Read and see what happens, good and bad to a delightful fourth grader, Camille McPhee.

WordWeaver has a great idea!

WordWeaver will end the old year......

with a look at a book that is a sign of the times. One that is sad, in a way but also offers hope.
