Reading A's

There are an a assortment of books you can read to earn a

letter "A" car  on your amazing summer reading race track:

Alphabet or "Alphabite!" books

books about America, animals or art

Alamanacs(which are books full of facts about everything

from aerospace, animals and astronomy to the zodiac) and

Atlases (which are books of maps of anywhere and

everywhere all around the world)

And there are an array of "A" characters like:

Amber Brown . . . Amelia Bedelia . . .

Anastasia Krupnik . . . Arthur the Aardvark and

"Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good Very Bad Day"

 

My favorite "A" book is "Anne of Green Gables"

by L.M. Montgomery--a book I'm sure your

mothers would rather read than you.

Oh well, I'm sure you'll find something just as awesome

to read during the amazing summer reading race!

The Amazing Summer Reading Race Begins Today!

You and your whole family are invited (challenged) to
read at least one book for every letter of the alphabet
this summer. The letter can be from the title, the main
character, the author or the subject of the book.
However, each book can only be used for one letter.

You can count the books you read alone . . . or the books
your Mom and Dad read  . . . or the books you read to a
younger sibling . . . or the books you read aloud as a family.
  Add "letter cars" to your amazing reading race track for each
book completed.  And watch out for "reading roadblocks"
on your reading racetrack. Those roadblock challenges and
 many other reading suggestions will appear on this blog
all through the summer.

Best of all . . . reading rewards can be earned
during random legs of the race and . . .  grand prizes
will be awarded to all the winners!
 

So start your engines
(brains) . . .
get ready
(find a book) and . . .
 READ!

The

is only a weekend away!

Are you ready?
Love, Grandma

Just one more week until . . .

Coming soon . . .

It's the merry month of May and not many more days until something . . .

Stay tuned!

Love, Grandma
