I'm hearing all kinds of good things about Desperaux. Can't wait for that one!<BR/><BR/>Jroy, You should join this challenge! You were the first person I thought of when I saw this. It would be perfect for you.

I didn't like The Giver, although one of my student teachers called it her favorite. I think Bud, Not Buddy is sophisticated for elementary age, and I've shockingly never read A Bridge to Terebithia. Then, they went ahead and made it a movie which I refuse to see before reading it. But, I know I'll have to gear up emotionally according to what everyone says...Bellezza https://www.blogger.com/profile/18073864187188953633noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7315611891697079859.post-89103806568823233472007-04-21T15:22:00.000-05:002007-04-21T15:22:00.000-05:00Posted my list now! *grin*Posted my list now! *grin*Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7315611891697079859.post-21490148560148347182007-04-21T14:28:00.000-05:002007-04-21T14:28:00.000-05:00Great too hotty!

Looking forward to reading them.<BR/><BR/>bookfool, I read Terabithia when I was young and don't remember it well, but I'm looking forward to reading it again. I was going to do the Dystopian challenge too, but I'm kind of sick of that genre from the Banned Books challenge, so I'm giving that one a pass. Looking forward to The Giver though, that's where I first heard of that one.chrisa511https://www.blogger.com/profile/05793512698366676453noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7315611891697079859.post-59532171770465985652007-04-21T13:32:00.000-05:002007-04-21T13:32:00.000-05:00I've read Despereaux and Bridge to Terabithia and ...I've read Despereaux and Bridge to Terabithia and loved them both. I saw The Giver on somebody's Dystopian Challenge list.
