This is my current afternoon read-aloud with my first grade friends. This is an awesome book about friends, second grade/elementary school, and the thoughts an 8 year old has. My kids are connecting to it and loving it!
After seeing this book a few places, and trying to get my hands on it, I'm going to have to order it! Trying to borrow it has been elusive, which is making me want to read it more! Confession: I'm not reading this book yet, but am so excited to!

After hearing this title, I had several kids who were demanding to know where "Henry and Mudge was." (Yes, was.) They are moving in my classroom now, and they were scouring our school library on Friday to try and find them.
Happy Reading!
