All journeys have a starting place.
This is a weekly place to find books and tools
that you may use with readers at the start of their reading journey.

Since it's the beginning of the month I thought I would share with you some of the transitional chapter books my students are currently checking out!

What the kids love about this series: fun characters and they love the episodic chapters

What the kids love about this series: they love the Daisy is just like them, but then there is an element of make believe with imaginary friends!

What the kids love about this series: it's about a character who has grown up in the wild and now needs to learn all about proper behavior - you can imagine how silly it is!
