I love, love the Skeleton Creek series by Patrick Carmen-- interactive "you tube" videos at the end of each chapter. Very well done book by Scholastic.

I am going to be teaching a weekly summer school reading class for middle schoolers. I am interested in some read aloud suggestions that can work for everyone from the innocent 11-year-olds to the more worldly 13-year-olds. I need books that I can read out loud in four hours or less without rushing. Any ideas? I also wonder how many books it would be reasonable to expect kids to read during eight weeks over the summer. They get to choose what books they read. Any suggestions you have about making the class successful would be appreciated. We'll meet just once a week for two hours each week. I'm planning on dividing each class session into different parts. We cannot do all one thing for two hours! Thanks!
