[LM_NET] HIT: HELP FINDING BOOK TITLE - USE OF CONTEXT

[Debbie White <dwhite@USD263.K12.KS.US>]

Thanks for all your suggestions in trying to help identify a book for one of
my colleagues who remembered a fourth grade teacher using this book to teach
context.  She recalled the book being used back in 1991, and while it had
several "unknown" words substituted for familiar words, in order to teach
students to use the context of the sentence, she knew one of the substituted
words was for soda pop.

Thanks to Annette, Shayne, Sally, Sarah, Teri, Sara, Melissa, Elisha,
Kimberly, and Sue, for your suggestions.  I also received a couple of requests
for posts.  While a couple of the titles are too recent, this friend
appreciated getting such a quick response and is enjoying looking at her new
"finds."

Title suggestions:
THE BFG (Big Friendly Giant) by Roald Dahl
BALONEY                      by Jon Scieszka
PLEASING THE GHOST           by Sharon Creech
FRINDLE                      by Andrew Clements

THANK YOU, LM_NET!
