Grand View Elementary Library

12 students joined me in the library for our 5th Grade Book Club this past Thursday. All twelve enjoyed the book Save Me a Seat by Sarah Weeks. The discussion about cultural differences was wonderful! I highly recommend this book!

The winner of the 2019 Newbery Award is...

Merci Suarez Changes Gears by Meg Medina! A copy is already on the way from Amazon to our Grand View Elementary Library!

Our second graders have been reading possible choices for the 2019 Caldecott Medal since early December and I can't wait to tell them who won (and it is one that we've read)! Snow days have messed up the timing of their voting but it will be priority number one when we return to school so I can tell them the winner! Until then...shhhhh 🤫

So excited to be watching the Live Stream of the American Library Association Youth Media Awards! Who will win the Caldecott and Newbery Awards?!?!??
