Books You Just HAVE To Read!

These are the author studies that we do in class. I picked these author/ illustrators because they are some of my favorites and because they are wonderful  to read aloud   Most of these authors are very prolific and have many, many  other wonderful titles.

I have listed the web site for each author. Most have great interactive games for kids! 

 You can find these books at the Public Library or buy them at Amazon.com!  Happy Reading!
