Week-End Book Report #3

This week we did much less reading than usual due to all of the holiday excitement. However, it is nice to have a light reading week now and then....

Here is our rating scale: (if it scores a 4 or 5 then we recommend it)

1= we'll never check this book out again.
2= If there was nothing else to read we could suffer through it.
3= Enjoyed it once, but once will probably be enough.
4= We would be happy to check this book out again, and will probably look for it again on the shelves. We would recommend it to a friend. 
5= This goes on our list of all-time favorites.We could enjoy it numerous times, and will probably check it out often or already do check it out often. We would recommend or buy it for a friend.

Rating: 4 1/2 (Autumn) Science, Bayliss Library....We have read this book before and it inspired us to start picking up trash along the beaches near our house...

Rating: 2 (Autumn) Biography, Bayliss Library...we didn't like this book because it was written as if the reader already had a HUGE amount of background knowledge about who Shakespeare was and about the plays he had written...too many dates dished, too many play titles dished, too much uninteresting information.....definitely not written with younger kids in mind.

Rating: 3 1/2 (Autumn and Alaina) Science, Bayliss Library....even though this is old we still learned a lot from the book.

Rating: 5 (Autumn and ALaina) Bayliss Library...we like to look at the beautiful illustrations and make-up our own stories.
