![]() ![]() I don’t remember the details of my solo read, but I do remember thinking this is one of the best children’s books I’d ever read.Īs I sat on my chair in the front of my classroom, kids sitting on the floor at my knee, I began the read aloud by showing them the cover of the book. I want to make sure I know what is coming, what I’ll need to explain and so that I can practice my read aloud voice. My search for the perfect book was over when I found Edward Tulane.Īs usual, I always pre-read books that I read to my class. ![]() My plan was to find a read aloud book to my class that we could analyze and enjoy the book together. I needed a book to use to teach my class about story structure, a book that would clearly spell out the story’s problem and resolution. I picked this book up from the McClatchy Library because I had loved Kate DiCamillo’s other books: especially Because of Winn Dixie and The Tiger Rising. Although it wasn’t published in 2009, I read it this year. The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane touched my heart this year. What book – fiction or non – touched you? Where were you when you read it? Have you bought and given away multiple copies? ![]()
