sorry, so busy this weekend getting pumped for registration…

“the sandman and the alphabet of sleep” – has anyone else read this book? it’s a quasi-children’s picture book – very creative – very nice read – only 100 pages-ish – still, a bit more heft than just a picture book – parts of it remind me of a Christmas story – parts are just like a Washington Irving book (book within a book)

“the most frightening story every told” – could be an elem BOB – except parents wouldn’t like it – b/c the book is anti-modern parenting:) part willy wonka, part horror, part history – the book dealt with more than most elem stories deal with – a bit heavy handed at times for me – but would definitely be recommendable to a middle school audience

back to prepping for locker assigning:)
