What to do about Alice. It was cute. It was about Theodore Roosevelt daughter. It was another good one. It was the first one I have read that was a fiction picture book I enjoyed and would read again. One of the things it said, I believe a lot of fathers feel like this about their daughters. It is said that Theodore said, "I can be the President of the United States and control Alice, but simply can NOT do both!"Today I started something for my future classroom. Growing up I remember LOVING the bluebonnet books and reading all of them! So today I decided I would read the 2009-2010 Bluebonnet List before I have my own class that way I can talk about the books with the kids and read some of them with the kids. So today I went and got a public library card and checked out 4 bluebonnet books. I have already finished 3 of them. I read:
Pale Male: Citizen Hawk of New York City (not very good- story was ok pictures werent that great), 
Frogs This one was great- its a non-fiction with real photos and information on all different types of frogs, I can see little boys LOVING this book!!!
and lastly I read Maybelle in the Soup-this book was about a cockroach and her friend the flea who want to eat people food on a plate not on the floor as left overs. It was cute but Frogs was my favorite. 
I also checked out The Penderwicks on Gardam Street but it is a longer chapter book so it might take me a day or two.Anyways- I am super excited and cant wait to give you an update on the other books I have read. So far, Frogs was my favorite by far. VERY INTERESTING and the PICTURES WERE GREAT! *can definetly see Cannon, Gunnar, Grayson, Adam & Zach loving this one*
