Laurie,

Two of my favorites are Poppy by Avi and Dominic by William Steig.

While we're on the subject of Read Alouds - does anyone have some fresh new titles for third grade? My stand-bys have been Ruby Holler and The Take of Despereaux and Cricket in Times Square and There's An Owl in the Shower..
I'm ready for something new and different that has not been made into a movie.


Thanks,
Laurie

My students and I LOVED Freak the Mighty.

What would some of you suggest reading after Freak the Mighty --
something similar that kids would like as well?

 Subject: [MOSAIC] Read aloud to start off the 7th grade

 I have always used Fig Pudding by Ralph Fletcher with my lower level seventh
 graders.  It is ONLY a read aloud (they do not ever have a copy in front of
 them) to help get them started and motivated about books and
 listening skills. Works like a charm.

 I want something similiar in topic (a cute funny story that kids can
 relate to)
 but a little more challenging for my honors classes this year.  Any
 ideas?  It
 will also be read aloud to them.

 Thanks in advance!
 Sara
