Yes, it's still MONDAY and you may be asking WHAT AM I READING?
It's been a while since I posted for #IMWAYR.
But that doesn't mean I'm not reading like crazy!
Today I'll share a new resource you teachers and librarians out there might not know about. But it's fun to play around with. Booklists on all sorts of topics.
This is my contribution:

Baseball books!
So, what else am I reading?
I just finished my friend Susan Hill Long's latest, THE CARE AND KEEPING OF FREDDY.
Oh what fun this brand new middle-grade novel is. But fun with heart. So much heart.
It made me smile but it also made me think. There is so much to discuss with kids in this story.
What would a young girl do in a family like Georgia's?
How do friends help us make important life decisions when we're young?
And for those writers among us: How do you develop a character like Georgia's mother and make her believable?
Sue is brilliant at craft and characters. I love this book.
