Oh, I just loved to use Miss Nelson is Missing to teach a little classroom behavior and also have fun playing with the voices -- I can do a mean Miss Swamp!!!

I also liked using Chrysanthamum when dealing with names and teasing.

An unusual story I used that 3rd graders really liked was Virgie Goes to School about African-American children in a family struggling to get an education. It had substance!

I always struggled to find titles for use in library orientation that the classroom teachers weren't reading. I feel it is important to read to children the first time they see/meet you in the LMC.

*Princess Posey and the First Grade Parade* and
*Princess Posey and the New First Grader* both by Stephanie Greene

*Mrs. Watson Wants Your Teeth* by Alison McGhee
