  I enjoy reading every day.  One of my favorite authors is Jane Yolen because she writes so many different types of picture books, including the "How Do Dinosaurs" series and Owl Moon. I can teach many writing skills using her books as mentor texts. What talent Ms. Yolen has!

Name one of your favorite authors and tell us a bit about him or her.  
What is the title of your favorite book?
What genre of book do you like best and why?  (realistic fiction, fantasy, mystery, tall tales, biography, poetry, ......)

    Thanks to all of my second grade Gateway students for telling me your favorites! Great job!

    Several of you asked questions. Here are the answers.

    My favorite poem would have to be one called "Smart" by Shel Silverstien. He is also one of my favorite poet, although he is no longer living. My other favorite poet is Ken Nesbitt. Check out his website for lots of funny poems!

    The genre of literature I have started to enjoy more is non fiction, especially autobiographies. It is so interesting to read about real people and what they have accomplished. Maybe I'll read a book about YOU one day!! :)
