I'm learning how to do better book talks and get kids excited about a book. One of the sure fire tricks is to read the first couple of chapters. Then everyone is dying to read the rest.
I took it home and finished it...because I felt the same way. I needed to know what happens! When I finished it I thought, "Gee, this seems familiar!" Then it struck me. David Lubar! We read Punished for the Battle of the Books a few years ago. This one is pretty similar.
The Branches series are great for kids not quite into chapter books just yet.
Goodreads says:
This series is part of Scholastic's early chapter book line called Branches, which is aimed at newly independent readers. With easy-to-read text, high-interest content, fast-paced plots, and illustrations on every page, these books will boost reading confidence and stamina. Branches books help readers grow!
