more new books

More new books!  

I'm still in the middle of the third in Martin's series, so Dance with Dragons (the 5th) will have to wait a while.  (sigh) 

Huge events just happened in Storm of Swords -- my emotions are exhausted.  If you have read it, I'm sure you remember.   I'm putting it aside for a little while.


We went to see Nunsense, so of course we dressed 

I need to read Little Bee sometime this week because LF book club is discussing it this weekend.  We are spending 3 days, 2 nights in  Downieville, a small picturesque town on the Yuba River (a few hours north east).   We are an awesome bookclub group and take off for a vacation, art, wine tasting, plays, etc etc.

This month we will discuss the novel and also celebrate a member's upcoming wedding and a couple retirements.  It will be a best time!

I started reading the Math Work Station book on line and quickly knew I wanted to buy it.  It's a Stenhouse book and they had it available to read free.  They often do that (it might still be up) and I know it must work financially for them since I'm forever buying their books.  Plus, you simply cannot go wrone with a Debbie Diller book!



The best news is: while waiting for my copy to arrive, I found a plethora of teachers discussing it on line.  Mrs Wills Kindergarten is the place to begin reading and learning -- she has links to many other teachers involved.


I'm sad that they've finished and I wasn't able to be with them from the start -- I'm hoping nothing disappears in the next few weeks while I get myself caught up.
