Finding Great Book

Wow! There is a lot of blogging going on here! I am not sure if I can read them all. Recently I found something very interesting that can help you with your summer reading. It is on the scholastic.com website and it's called BookAlike (click on this name, it's a link to the website).

If there is a book that you love, type in the title. Then slide the little bar, to say if you would like the book to be easier or harder. Let's say for instance you LOVED Sideways Stories from Wayside School when you were younger, but now that would be too easy. Sooo....just type it in, slide the bar toward "harder" and POOF! (or ZOOM, if you prefer) you have a list of book which include: Space Station Seventh Grade by Jerry Spinelli and It's not my fault I know everything by Jim Benton. So, there are two books I might check out right away, because I loved Sideways Stories from Wayside School!

And after you find the books, be sure to go the library website to check it out.

If you need the website for BookAlike, here it is:
