My hope is to captivate even my reluctant readers with books like Jump Shot by Tiki Barber and The Terrible Two by Mac Barnett. Providing students with new sets of books that are fun, funny and relevant to their interests will hopefully rekindle a joy for reading in the classroom. Giving students an opportunity to collaborate with classmates and communicate about their reading experiences will surely spark a fire for reading. Also, many of these books are part of a series, so once the students get a taste for what they like, they can seek out new titles by the same author.
