Another PTO Thank You

Today I was able to go shopping at the Book Fair that is going on this week at Donovan. The money I was spending was provided by the PTO. Here are just a few of the books I got (sorry about the pictures not being the best):


The Dork Diaries!! These books are so popular right now in the room. As soon as a new book comes out, someone will have it. I have a group that sits together in the room and they are all reading the Dork Diaries Series. These books are going to get a work out in my room.


STAR WARS STAR WARS STAR WARS STAR WARS!!! Do I need to say anything else. We have Jabba the Puppet and the one I am most excited about is Emperor Pickletine Rides the Bus. I cannot wait to steal that one and give it a quick read.


Geronimo Stilton is one of my favorite series and these are two new titles to add to our collection.


This is the book I am most excited about in the group. I have a feeling this is going to become as popular as The Diary of a Wimpy Kid. This book has two authors and looks to be hysterical.


Two nonfiction books and Doll Bones. 


An Andrew Clements book and The Cupcake Club.


A few graphic novels. I love that graphic novels seem to be becoming more and more popular. In the past few years it seemed hard to find a lot of different titles unless you were at a great book store. Now the trend is bringing a new graphic novel to each book order. These books are great at catching some of our more reluctant readers.


Another graphic novel and a poetry book.

I love adding new books to the library. In just a few days these books will make their way around the room. Hopefully my choices will be popular and more and more students will want to read them. When I told the class that I was adding some books to the library, I saw a student fist pump. Nothing is better that seeing students excited to go read new and different books. 

Thanks again to the PTO to bringing a little excitement and the chance to catch a few new life-long readers by giving me the chance to go book shopping.
