Based off the classic American Girl dolls, is a series of books that each character comes with! This particular one is a HF beginners chapter book that talks about keeping their Swedish traditions in the new country they call home. I think that this book would be perfect for IR. It not only shares different cultural views with your students but helps them to see what it might mean to keep traditions alive throughout time. #ucflae3414F17

emilykwilkins The link below will show vocabulary that students might find challenging or new in this story that you as a teacher could introduce before reading. As well this website is a good resource to find other books and reading materials that may correlate well with this book https://fab.lexile.com/book/details/9780937295199/

Look what was on my doorstep! I couldn't resist ordering this new book sub box!

Megabooks Which one did you get? 7y
Kris10 @Booksandcooks I got romance ☺️ my first choices were lit fiction or mystery but they were already sold out. I do like the box I got though! Did you get one? 7y
Megabooks @Kris10 No but I won a free book. Idk if I'll try it or not. 7y
Kris10 @Booksandcooks the best part of the box is that the book comes with notes written by the author explaining parts of the book. If your book comes with that it's worth it to try the free book! 7y
Megabooks @Kris10 That's really cool!! 7y
