I would appreciate any suggestions you might have regarding a request I
received at the end of school in May.

A third grade teacher asked me to recommend some novel that she can do with
her classes in the early part of the year--October probably-- that
incorporates water in some significant way.  The children really study water
in depth, and they try to tie in books any way they can.  The challenge is
to get something with that water component that also has a not-too-tough,
not-too-easy reading level, that also would appeal to a whole class!  in the
past they have used
_The Well_, but they want something different now.
I've been chewing on this for a few weeks now, but I'm coming up short on
ideas.  I'd like to be able to share with this teacher suggestions from
other professionals across the country.
Any thoughts would be helpful and appreciated!
