Review: Read, Read, Read!

Read, Read, Read! by Amy Ludwig VanDerwater
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I loved this book. It is a cute poetry book for kids. Each poem is about reading and includes different types of reading kids can relate to. From reading a ceral box, to street signs, to Sunday comics. The illistrations are well done. This is a great book for elementary classrooms or as gifts for younger readers. I read this as apart of #booktrek.

Review: The End of Average: How We Succeed in a World That Values Sameness

The End of Average: How We Succeed in a World That Values Sameness by Todd Rose
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I loved this audiobook. It was a great look at what we consider is "the average." I highly recommend this book to anyone to read. As a teacher, this book was a great PD read. I liked the idea of moving away from the focus on the "average" person and to focus more on the individual. To look at peolpe's strengths and not random pieces we feel they should have or be able to do. The author brought up some great examples and stories to help illistrate his point.
