Shiver by Maggie Stiefvater
Ballad by Maggie Stiefvater
Summer of the Silk Moths by Margaret Willey

    Awww, Maggie's signature is adorable. You got an amazing batch of books. Are you planning on putting any in the classroom library? (I'm incredibly curious about classroom libraries.)

    And I love the weekly owl update. I always think of you now when I see owl stuff!

    Happy reading.

    I get most of my owl stuff at Barnes and Noble, Target or places like Michaels. I also find tons on Etsy.com!

    Katie- about 98% of my books go into my classroom library. Some don't because, as a teacher, they aren't ones that are appropriate to have out for 7th graders.
