Will Freddy Win the School Read-a-Thon?

Hello, Readers!

This week second graders are meeting to discuss The Reading Race (Ready, Freddy! #27) from Abby Klein's wildly popular series. Freddy is a first grader who is crazy about sharks and always has a problem he is worried about.

In this story, the race is on! Freddy's class is competing in a Read-a-thon, and the student who reads for the most minutes will win five free books - and the class who reads the most minutes will win an author visit, too! Freddy plans to win this contest . . . even if it means staying up all night! But he has a problem: he believes he's not a very good reader. Will he be up for the challenge, or will his worries get the best of him?

Discussion questions can be found here. You can also check out more of Freddy's funny adventures in one or more of the 34 books in Abby Klein's Ready, Freddy! series. These books are great for elementary readers who are ready for chapter books. Each story is full of illustrations, large font, and chapters that are full of action that keeps readers engaged.

Happy reading!
