Some Other Books I Read
Short novel in verse about
a young boy finding his voice as he responses to poetry with his own
poems.
Big Friends
Two best friends love to
imagine and to play outside together.
When a new person asks to join them, it changes everything. This story
is a perfect blend of friendship and big
imagination.
Hector and Hummingbird
What do you do when your
best friend has an annoying habit? This
story is a great springboard for discussion on friendship, accepting other’s
flaws, and respecting each other’s needs.
Sam and Jump
Sam and Jump (a toy) do
everything together. When they meet a
new friend, Thomas, they play all day together at the beach. At home Sam realizes he forgot something
important: Jump!
Oh My, Oh No!
A sweet story of a little girl who tries to imitate her mommy, but not always with ideal results (from the mother’s perspective).

I love Love That Dog! I read it to my 3rd grade class every year and it always makes me cry. I also enjoyed Sisters. It was on my #IMWAYR list last week. Thanks for the other recommendations.
