Happy Thanksgiving to all of you.
BIG NEWS! Remember a few weeks ago we told you we went to the White House and brought a book of your emails to the First Lady? Well, guess what? We got a really nice letter back from her thanking all of you. You can click the link below to see what she had to say.
Even if you are NOT in a book group, what book would you love to discuss with a group of readers?

The wormkids and I are going to see Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets right after school on Friday. They are so excited. Don't the coming attractions look great? There are some books that are movie tie-ins that you can read more about this week. See our link below for more details.
Have your book group discussions made you a more critical reader?

When we last wrote we were on our way to the White House for the Opening Ceremony of the National Book Festival. As promised, we brought along your letters to the First Lady and delivered them to her Deputy Press Secretary. We heard from over 1,500 of you! What fun it was to read what you had to say.
What sophomore effort either pleased, or disappointed you? In your reply, please specify the title and whether you were satisfied, or left wanting.

What author(s) has you racing to the store to buy his or her book the day it comes out, (if you have not pre-ordered it already)?

We know that Judy Blume is one of your FAVORITE authors! She is one of ours too. The news this week is that her newest book in the Fudge series --- DOUBLE FUDGE --- just came out. We have a BIG feature about that for you, complete with trivia games and TWO word scrambles (one is easy and the other is a challenge!).
