Like Mysteries?
Sue O says:
Whoever likes to read mysteries, you should get "The Missing" seiries.
Sue is right!
Margaret Peterson Haddix has written some great books. The first book in "The Missing" series, Found, starts with a plane that mysteriously appears at an airport. Nobody knows where it came from and no one saw it arrive. There is no pilot, and no crew. The only passengers are 36 babies.....Thirteen years later, teenage adopted children start getting frightening messages saying they are among "the missing" and that someone is coming to get them......

Guess what girls?! I was almost right when I told you there was a sequel to 11 Birthdays and Finally 12. The new book, 13 Gifts, will come out on Sept. 1.
Here is a sneak peek at the cover. What do you think? Should I get it for the school library?
I put a link to the author's website on the right side of the screen. Click on her name, Wendy Mass.

Summer Reading
The fifth grade students and Ms. Domann (with a little help from Ms. Rinke) have come up with a list of great books for summer reading. The list is a long one so it has its own page. Look on the right side of the screen for PAGES and click on Summer Reading List.
Happy Reading....and don't forget to sign up at the Lawrence Public Library for the summer reading program!!
