The Grade 2/3 class truly became totally captivated during the read-aloud of the book called, "WARNING! Do Not Open This Book!" by Adam Lehrhaupt. Lowering my voice to a whisper and pausing before turning the page built suspense that made this story very real. A few of the children actually moved from where they were sitting, feeling like the book was actually going to come alive. All of us laughed and chatted about each page and the anticipation of what was to follow. So many children wanted to borrow this book after I read it. Aah! Choosing the right book for the different classes makes it memorable and enjoyable and everyone left with a smile. All shivers were now gone.
Happy Halloween!
