The power of books

Gathering closely around, Avram, Lincoln, Alana, Jacob, and Ryan were drawn to the tiny book featuring photos of various transportation vehicles. Page by page, they identified each vehicle, debating the names, discussing their favorites, and talking about which ones they would like to live on. (Yes, that's right, they dream of living on trucks, trains, and boats!) From cruise ships, to excavators, we review the pages of this book frequently. Favorite books such as these have the power to draw as together, spark discussions, and build community in the classroom.
