Mystery Reader #8: A Lover of Books!

Today's Mystery Reader shared with us that...
1) She likes to grow things in the garden and indoor plants.
2) She has a dog and two cats.
3) She plays piano and sings.

Her son was so excited to share his mom and their collection of books with us!  Starting out with "The Book with No Pictures" by B. J. Novak had the students rolling with laughter.  The next book, "The Word Collector" by Peter Reynolds, was a very special book for this family, and we were honored to hear this story.  The final book, also one of my favorites, was "Extra Yarn" by Mac Barnett.  This story opened us up to so much conversation about why the young girl had a never ending supply of yarn, yet the Duke had none.  This mom compared the yarn to love... the more you give the more you get.  Such a beautiful message!  Thank you Stela for reading to us today!
