Alvin Ho

I finished reading Alvin Ho by Lenore Look. It is about a 2nd grade boy who is afraid of almost everything. He wants to make friends and be able to talk in school he just can't. I really enjoyed this book because Alvin is very likable, he allows the reader to understand what is going on inside his head and why he reacts the way he does to the many scary situations he encounters. I also liked his father, he really cared about Alvin and wanted to help him.

I recommend this Bluebonnet book to both boys and girls who like reading about making friends and overcoming things that scare you.

End of Summer - August 6th

Hello Bledsoe!

My name is Mrs. Eaton and I will be your librarian this year. I can't wait to meet all of you and start a wonderful year of reading together. I hope you have been reading some intersting books over the summer. I have worked my way through the Bluebonnet Reading List and look forward to talking with you about your favorites.

Here is the link to the list of books: http://www.txla.org/groups/tba/nominees.html
