Silly Ghosts

Silly Ghosts

Author: Janet Lawler
Illustrator: Anna Chambers
Engineering by: Yevgeniya Yeretskaya
Genre: Fiction, Pop-up book
Grade: Pre-K and up


This is a Halloween pop-up book about ghosts. The silly ghosts pop out at night and they are looking for something or someone. Either a place to hide or to hunt, they are either searching for a party or a feast. The silly ghosts blow out candles that are lit and they play spooky games. They are looking for a special kid and now that they have seen you, they hope you will share with them a Happy Halloween.


This is a great pop-up book to share to the students in Halloween. I will not let the lower grade level touch this for it is delicate. I will prefer the 3rd grade students and up to handle it with care than the Pre-k students. This pop-up book is really simple and colorful. The silly ghosts of course pop out of the book and that there are parts that you pull a paper handle and the picture in the book disappears which is unique. I will definitely show this to my students near or during Halloween so that they will enjoy it. It is very appropriate to students and it is not scary at all.

Poems to Learn by Heart

Poems to Learn by Heart Author: Caroline Kennedy Illustrator: Jon J Muth Genre: Poetry Ages or Grade: mostly 4 th and 5 th grade This book consists of a lot of poems that are short and long poems. Few poems that I can read to the lower grade level would be My Shadow by Robert Louis Stevenson and Under the Bed by Penny Trzynka. These two poems are really simple to understand and it mainly expresses feelings and thinking of a child or reading a child’s perspective. I will definitely read these two poems to 2 nd and 3rd-grade students. Most of the poems are readable for the upper-grade level such as 4 th and 5 th graders but there are some that are really long and the vocabulary level is too high. I will not keep this in the reader’s shelf in the reading section but I will only bring it out and read it aloud to students. I feel like if the students read this book individually they are going to have a hard time for some of them consist of old English which is why i

Please Don’t Feed the Bears

Please Don’t Feed the Bears Author: Allan Fowler Genre: Non-Fiction Grade: 1 st grade and up The book talks about the different kinds of bears. How the black bears look like brown bears but they are not and they have different characteristics. They eat only vegetables and they like to roam around and dig around. Black bears are shy and they are curious and watchful. The Brown bears are the biggest of all bears. If you encounter a black bear, just keep walking and do not mind them, just keep a walking distance and do not bother them. They like to dig around especially in campsites or trash can bins. If you encounter a brown bear, stand still or play dead. The Polar bears live up north where the ice are. They like to hunt fish and other sea animals. They live in the Arctic, where it is really cold. In the end, do not feed the bears because they will ask for more. I really like this book because it is very informative about the different types and characteristics of be
