Finished SNOOP by @gordonkorman & thought it had a great modern take on what snooping looks like today. And though even though you can, doesn’t mean you should. Loved the inclusion of drones, live streaming, etc. A modern tale of a modern teen snoop. Check it out in the Library!

My latest read by @gordonkorman
…SLUGFEST. A great choice for summer!! Korman books always seem to “get” the trials and tribulations of middle school. And shows how no matter our differences we can learn from one another. I’m moving on to SNOOPED next!

Continuing my @gordonkorman read-a-thon the last two weeks so I can honestly share the books with my students. OLD SCHOOL. Potential for so many discussions & community projects with the elderly. It’s worth checking out! 7th grade Library Club member Rosalie agrees with me! 👍

I’ve been on a @gordonkorman read the last week or two. I am so happy to share that I loved Hypergifted!! Ungifted is one of my most recommended books for MS students & I really liked the spin on the 3rd book. Check out all 3 books in the Library!! #faveMSauthor #dreamschoolvisit
