Summer Vacation May Be Over, But Our Next Journey Is Just Beginning!


Hello Readers!

Welcome to the start of the 2016-17 school year! I am so excited to kick off another year of sharing books with our book club members and readers around the world. This year we have a great selection of newly published books, a few stories by tried-and-true phenomenal authors, and some titles that are relevant to current issues in our world. I can't wait to dig in and discuss these books with you. The video slideshow below gives you a sneak peak of some of the books we'll be reading. Which one(s) do you predict will be your favorite(s)? Let me know in the comments section below.

  


I will be at the Wilder Elementary Open House from 10:00 am to 1:00 pm on Wednesday, August 31, 2016, to share information about how WILD(er) About Reading Book Club works, the books we'll be reading, and helping kids make origami bookmarks! Come say hello to me at the AM Enrichment tables. Tell me what you've been reading this summer or what you're looking forward to reading this year. The flyer that will be distributed can be downloaded here if you are not able to attend the Open House.


For those students who will be joining the WILD(er) About Reading Enrichment Book Clubs this school year (Laura Ingalls Wilder Elementary students in grades 2-5), please be sure to visit the Wilder PTSA Enrichment web site and register between September 7 and 13, 2016.

Do you have any book suggestions for the 2016-17 school year? What are you looking forward to reading this year? List your ideas in the comments section below.

Happy reading!
