Elm in NJ Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 My 12 yr old ds and I just started reading this. It seemed to have some great reviews at Amazon but what do you all think about it? Sonlight seems to have it as part of their core 300(ages 14-18) , so are there 'iffy' bits in it? Elmeryl:confused Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allen Academy Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 I loved this book - I used it as part of my reading curriculum when I taught 5th grade; I think it is fine for a 12yo. I recommend Sharon Creech to everyone. She is one of my favorite authors :) If you are interested, I used part of this set of lesson plans when I taught it: http://www.glencoe.com/sec/literature/litlibrary/pdf/walk_two_moons.pdf There might be something in there that would be useful to you :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PixieKris Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 My daughter and I both loved it, but I really think it is a better mother daughter read, than a read aloud. We actually listened to it on tape. It had some subject matter that I wanted to be able to pause and discuss (though it's been a while since I read it.) It was GREAT though...
