The Principal's on the Roof

Do you like very funny dramatic books? Well Principal on the Roof by Elizabeth Lewis is a great book for you. It's about a reading marathon that is happening at Ella's school. The kids need to read 1000 books so the principal will spend the morning reading them a book on the roof. Do you think the kids would read 1000 books before the end of April? Well, read this book to find out. by:Nashaiyaa

As a 4th grade teacher, I use a lot of Elizabeth Levy's books in my classroom. My students absolutely LOVE the "Something Queer..." stories. They get very wrapped up in the mysteries and they enjoy the Gwen and Jill characters. There is ONE character that they love above all others, and that is- Fletcher the Bassett Hound. We were all very excited to learn that Elizabeth and Mordicai would be working on books told from Fletcher's point of view. This book is delightful and funny--a great read aloud. I would also reccommend, "A Hare Raising Tale" and ALL of the Something Queer books. Not just for kids, but for dog lovers and mystery lovers alike!!!
