Sleuths. . .This past year you’ve been asked to read books from a variety of genres and write Book Shares once a month. Suppose a person your age approached you and said s/he was giving up reading because there really wasn’t anything good to read.  However you convinced him/her to give it one more chance before giving it up entirely.  What book or genre of books would you recommend to hopefully give him/her that “burning desire” to pick up a book once more?  Why?

Sleuths…Today we had an interesting discussion about how Vasilissa the Beautiful is the Russian version of Cinderella and whether she showed initiative and patience.   What’s your thoughts on what was said?
