GEN: When Zachary Beaver Came to Town

[Cathy Lattus <cathyl@WOODROW.K12.AR.US>]

I have been reading  the Arkansas Charlie May Simon books and have
just finished When Zachary Beaver Came to Town.  I loved it, but I am
having mixed feelings about my 4th grades reading it.  I think the
children will like it...it's the parent I have a concern over.  Our
4th graders read the state books and this year are going to compete
just among other 4th graders in our our co-op area.  They have always
competed with the 5th and 6th.  I had a "stir" with a parent over one
of Robert Munsch's books... It is a wonderful book.   I thought maybe
I would send a note home to the parents forewarning them.  Any ideas
would help.
