  1. Hi Beth, Jerry Spinelli is an absolute favorite. I hope I can find and read Jake and Lily soon. Drama also looks interesting. :) Enjoy the rest of your 'reading' week!

  6. Enjoy Drama. I thought it was a mature book with great theme. It's different from Smile (also by Raina Telgemeier) but features the same authentic voices and spot on illustrations of middle school life.

  7. I still haven't had a chance to read DRAMA. I feel like I must get my hands on it soon!
    NEVER FALL DOWN sounds fabulous. Patricia McCormick is a very popular author with my students.
