Welcome to the Book Club for Lewisburg's Fifth Grade!

We are about to embark on a journey. A journey through the pages of books. You might find it adventurous, or humurous, scary, and maybe even suspensful, but rest assured you will enjoy the venture. Hang on for the ride that will take you everywhere but you won't have to leave the room...

Starting the Journey

Hello fifth graders!  I am super excited about our new book blog!  It will be so much fun to add our comments about our books here on our blog, instead of on paper!  I gave you the directions last week for our book journals and you will just need to apply those directions to your blog entries here.  You may post about yourself as a reader while reading your book, discuss the story elements of your book, or talk about the author of your book.  You will need a minimum of 25 entries (comments) by the end of the quarter and they will be graded according to the rubric I gave you.  Always keep your entries mannerly and appropriate or you will be left to do your entries on paper.  Remember, I am taking this journey with you as I read the book Horns and Wrinkles by Joseph Helgerson.  You know I am always open for an excuse to read a good book.  So open the cover of your book and jump right in for a wonderful voyage!  See you on the comment page!

    Horns & Wrinkles by Joseph Helgerson

    November 11, 10
    I picked this book at first for its odd, unique title. As a reader I like books that are "a little off the beaten path" as one would say. The picture on the cover is very intriguing to me as well and draws me into my childish imagination. As I previewed the review on the back cover, my eyes caught words such as trolls and fairies, as well as humor and horns. This whimsical twist on fantasy with its touch of humor has lured me in for a definite good read. I ponder...what mischief and mayhem will these little trolls encounter? Let the pages turn into the world of fantasy...
