Immogene's Last Stand

Imogene's Last Stand is about a little girl named Imogene who loves history. She loves history so much she quotes famous people through out the book. She cleans up the town's historical society and then learns that it will be torn down to make room for a shoe factory. She makes many attempts to save her beloved society. Imogene is a character and the pictures are really nice.


The kids loved the quotes and were impressed with how much history she knew.

GOAL!

The book I have been reading last week and will finish this week, is Goal by Mina Javerherbin. It is about some friends who live in a bad neighborhood and how they deal with bullies. The illustrations are very good and go well with the text.

With fewer students this year I am able to read a book to all classes in only two weeks. This is good because I will be able to read more books to the students before they vote in January.
