Barnes and Noble was having a great sale on Sarah Dessen books, since I realized how lacking I was in good teenage realistic books I grabbed up a few. I got:
I also got from Barnes and Noble:
Sweethearts by Sara Zarr
The Battle of the Labyrinth by Rick Riordan
And from The Book Deposity I got:
Ghostgirl by Tonya Hurly
I have to tell you a story about this book. For every book I put in my classroom library I put my name on the edge of the book, and on the inside cover I put the book's lexile and number of points it is for these tests they take. I couldn't do it on this book. I love the look and feel of this book, and I just couldn't write in it! I got the "you're weird" look from the kids but I didn't care :) I'll figure out some other way to mark it without ruining it. Silly I know!
And my owl this week is a cute little book-like note pad with owl on the cover and when you open it. It looks a lot bigger in the picture than it really is. Again I have my sister to thank for this one :)
Maybe you could make a little bookmark to go inside Ghostgirl with the info on it? Or put a plastic jacket on it and slip a piece of paper inside the folds?
ReplyDeleteI haven't read any Sarah Dessen, I really have to do something about this.
I know what you mean about Ghostgirl - I love the look and feel of the book.
