This month we will be reading a

Walk Two Moons new book called ‘walk Two
Moons’ by Sharon Creech. This
book is the winner of the John
Newbury Medal, which is the
oldest and most prestigious
children’s book prizes in the U.S.
With this book we will be working
a full novel study. We will focus
on character development,
character traits, symbols,
symbolism, setting, plot and
themes. I have previewed this
story with the class, and they
are very excited to get started,
as am I.
Winner of the John Newbury Medal.
