Lots of books to read

Hi Kids,
I'm really busy this week. I've been working in the Plympton library most days getting books ready for school. We have some good new things, and I've also repaired lots of damaged books and reorganized some of the library.
Since I'm in the library all week, I keep taking out different books that I've wanted to read. I loved a really quick picture book called Tiger in a Tree. It is fun to read out loud. I am also reading a book about Jim Thorpe, a Native American boy who grows up to become a super athlete. He was a football star AND an Olympic gold medal winner in track. He even has a town named after him in Pennsylvania. I read a book called Sees Behind Trees yesterday about a boy who cannot see with his eyes, so his other senses get so well developed that he seems to be able to "see behind trees." It takes place in this part of North America about 400 years ago, and has lots of good details about Native American life. Today I started a book called Every Little Bird That Sings. It is so good that I read 10 chapters in one sitting. It is about a girl who LIVES in a funeral home. She has an awful cousin and nice crazy old relatives who are always dying. It sounds sad, but it is very funny.
Next week I'm going to New Hampshire to sit near a pond and READ! I will probably eat too.
See you soon--remember to let me know if you read anything great,
Ms. Paradis
