"My favorite book" - Part 2

I can't believe it's almost here...time is just flying by!  This coming Monday is the beginning of Reading Week!  A couple weeks ago I wrote about the display I was planning to make to celebrate our students' favorite books.  Well, here it is!


Each of the small popcorn pieces features the title of a student or staff member's favorite book in our library.  The theme of the bulletin board goes along with our PTO's Pop and Swap event, which will take place on Tuesday, April 10th from 4-6pm.  Kids and adults can "pop in" to swap books they no longer read for different ones!  (You don't have to bring in your own used books to trade, but you are welcome to do so!)  While you're there you can enjoy some popular refreshments and play some popular games!  Plus each student who attends will receive a popcorn-scented bookmark!

I really enjoyed reading what my students wrote about their favorite books.  Here are a few more:

"My favorite book in the library is Baby because it was so touching.  For example when the mother came back for Sophie I cried.  And it was also funny, like when Sophie said a very bad word!"

"My favorite book in the library is Knuffle Bunny because I thought it was funny when Trixie could not talk and her dad was not paying attention and Trixie was making up fake words.  Also, her dad actually finally noticed that Knuffle Bunny was in the wash.  I think Trixie's dad should have listened to Trixie because she was freaking out about Knuffle Bunny."
"My favorite book in this library is Lulu and the Brontosaurus because I think it's funny that the brontosaurus wants her to be his pet and got her to be nice, not throw herself on the floor kicking her heels and screeching until the light bulbs burst, and to say please.  Also, I find it interesting that the author had three endings instead of one."
