Happy Labor Day, everyone!
I am a newly minted LMS in a fabulous school. A third grade teacher
asked if I could recommend any books about choosing a just right book,
such as picking one up, leafing through it, and putting it aside then
repeating this until a just right book is found.
I am stumped. Can anyone out there help me with this? I'll post a hit
if I get any replies. Thanks!
