Can You Help Me?
Our classroom library is quite expansive as I like all students to be surrounded by literature. Every genre is available to students. Yet, during the course of a year, novels get checked out or they simply walk out and don't come home when called. IF you have a spare copy of any of the following or can access one, may I have it for the children to read? Thank you so very much in advance.
Author Title
Korman, Gordon On the Run #1
Lu, Marie The Prodigy
Pelzer, Dave "A Child Called IT"
Scott, Michael The Alchemist, The Magician, The Necromancer, The Warlock
Any "I Survived..." books because they have become quite popular.
Any book that you enjoy, Book of World Records, and books with information like motor bikes, cars, trains, sports, horses, and reading material like that would be greatly appreciated.
