This year’s Brookside Book Fair was a great success.  The first graders loved shopping for books in the gym.  They picked some amazing stories which created excitement in our classrooms for reading.  The children enjoyed meeting three special authors and illustrators. The illustrator, Peter Brown made everyone laugh as he read his new book, Creepy Pair of Underwear!  He showed the kids how the illustrations in a book come to life.  `The second author who spoke to the group was Brad Meltzer.  He shared books from his I Am series, specifically I Am Amelia Earhart, I Am Jane Goodall,  and I Am Ghandi.  There are several other biographies in this series.  Together, they had an important discussions about heroes.  We ended our author celebration with Peter Reynolds, author of the first grade favorite, Ish.  He read his new book titled, Happy Dreamer.  He challenged the first grade students to continue using their imaginations and to never stop dreaming.  There are all kinds of dreamers, what type of dreamer are you?
