Today's book recommendation


Hey, fellows! Today we bring a new book recommendation. 

From now on until Book Day on April 23rd, a new book will be featured on the blog every day. Pick your pencils and start taking notes. You might want to start you birthday wishlist early ;o)



Our second recommendation comes from another teacher, Matt. This was his first choice for you!



64 pages
·         Age Range: 1 - 8 years
·         Grade Level: 2 - 3

'Once there was a tree...and she loved a little boy.'
So begins a story of unforgettable perception, beautifully written and illustrated by the gifted and versatile Shel Silverstein.
Every day the boy would come to the tree to eat her apples, swing from her branches, or slide down her trunk...and the tree was happy. But as the boy grew older he began to want more from the tree, and the tree gave and gave and gave.
This is a tender story, touched with sadness, aglow with consolation. Shel Silverstein has created a moving parable for readers of all ages that offers an affecting interpretation of the gift of giving and a serene acceptance of another's capacity to love in return.



Read your days away, book fellows. And remember, A Book a Day keeps Boredom at Bay ;o)

Tomorrow we'll be back with a new book recommendation! If you want to recommend a favourite book yourself, leave a comment.
