The Willoughbys

Some of you said you were interested in reading other books by Lois Lowry. This is one of her latest books. This book is reading level 5.2 and worth 4 AR points. There is a copy in the library and I "think" I have a copy too. I would love for a few of you to read it and then film a book review for our blog.

Happy Reading!

Class Discussion - Did you have something to add?


Hey guys~

Please feel free to share your thoughts if you didn't get a chance to do so this afternoon. :-)

Number the Stars - Chapter 10-11


At the end of chapter 3 Annemarie says she is glad that she is an ordinary person who will never be called upon for courage. I think we can all agree that Annemarie has been called upon to show courage several times. Please give me at least three examples of how Annemarie has had to show courage and bravery.
