Room 5 came to the library on Wednesday. We read That New Animal, by Emily Jenkins, and The Baby Goes Beep, by Rebecca O'Connell.
Room 5 has a few students who are beginning to read, which is exciting! Everyone joined in and read along with The Baby Goes Beep.

A Leaf Man's got go where the wind blows...

When Room 3 & Room 5 came to the library this month, we read Leaf Man.

I could look at Lois Ehlert's leaf collages forever! In Leaf Man, you get to watch as Leaf Man shifts in the wind, from a man into chickens, ducks and geese, pumpkins and winter squash, fish and turtles, and a spotted cow. All the while, you wonder: Where does a Leaf Man go when the wind blows?

If you like Leaf Man, be sure to check out another book she wrote about autumn, Red Leaf, Yellow Leaf.

Little Room Yellow visited the the library on Friday. Everybody loved listening to Leonardo the Terrible Monster, a fun picture book by Mo Willems.

Poor Leonardo can't scare anyone. He's a terrible monster. At last, he finds the perfect scaredy-cat kid, Sam, to frighten. Sam bursts into tears and Leonardo is thrilled! But Sam quickly explains that he's not scared at all, he's been having a terrible day! Leonardo thinks for a moment, and realizes that he may not be a great monster, but he could be a great friend for Sam.

Little Room Yellow is filled with great friends: everyone listened intently, and some friends gripped each other's hands during the almost-scary (but also funny) part.
