What Are You Reading in November, 3rd Grade?

We are getting ready to do our shopping, and so there will be lots of posts this month as we share more books that we are reading.

This month we are going to concentrate summarizing the story in three sentences.  For example, I enjoyed reading a book called Ish to the kindergarten and first grade classes.  My blog would look something like this: 
                   In November I read Ish by Peter Reynolds.  Ramon loves to
                   draw, but his brother Leon laughs at his drawings because
                   they don't look "real".  Ramon is discouraged and decides
                   to stop drawing.  However, his sister Marisol tells him his 
                   drawings are "ish,"  which means they are close.  Ramon
                   discovers he loves to draw tree-ish, flower-ish, and
                   other -ish pictures.

In Nov. I read Wolves it was by Victor Gentle and Janet Perry. The best part was when it talked about the pups. New pups are blind and cannot hunt for themselves. Mothers protect them and feed them her milk. When they are able to see, they want to explore. The pups meet the pack. The wolves greet the pups with yips and howls and lots of licks. Sometimes the pups get bitten,barked at, and nudged into their place in the pack.
