________________________________ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] on behalf of TLP Sent: Sat 11/22/2008 3:28 PM To: MT; Lit Site Subject: [LIT] Picture Books and Middle Schoolers Ian Falconer created Olivia the pig...by far one of my most favorite of picture books of the past couple years. Inbedded in his first book,aptly titled *Olivia*, are allusions and illustrations to great artists, architeciture and other craftily placed icons. I will be using this as one of my mentors texts as we explore the genre of picture books in my classroom. I also love anything by Patricia Polacco such as the incredible *Pink and Say*. What are some of your favorites both old and new, and how do you use them with your students? -- Tena _______________________________________________ The Literacy Workshop ListServ http://www.literacyworkshop.org <http://www.literacyworkshop.org/> To unsubscribe or modify your membership please go to http://literacyworkshop.org/mailman/options/lit_literacyworkshop.org.
