Happy Thanksgiving!

November 23, 2015 by Erika Thulin Dawes   2 comments

Happy Thanksgiving from Mary Ann, Erika, Grace, and Katie at The Classroom Bookshelf. We will be back next week, offering a few more favorites from 2015 before the year ends.  We are grateful for the work we do, and the opportunity to share it with you and your students.

If you are looking for a read aloud for these next few days before the holiday, you might find our entry for Melissa Stewart’s Balloons Over Broadway of interest.

    Thank you all for the fantastic work you do! I love the books you choose and am truly wowed by the thought and creativity you put into your suggestions for their classroom use. This blog is an invaluable resource for any professional (teacher, librarian, bookseller) engaging with kids around books!
