[LM_NET] ELEM & MS: suggested read-alouds

[Colleen Johnson <colleenj504@YAHOO.COM>]

Hi everyone,
I am a middle school librarian, and I have a teacher whose 6th grade class is 
partnering up with a second grade class at an elementary school in our district to 
read them children's books. The teacher has asked me to do a lesson with the 6th 
graders on storytelling/reading aloud to children. I'm wondering if the elementary 
librarians can suggest some popular titles that are fun to read aloud-- books that 
the elementary kids enjoy listening to, and/or what to look for when selecting a 
good book to read aloud (i.e. humor, suspense, books with repetition or rhyming). 
I'm compiling a list of suggestions to assist the 6th graders in selecting a book, 
so any suggestions would be much appreciated. Thank you in advance!!
Colleen
