I agree that books give kids experiences they might never get to have outside of books.

First I heard of it was from Linda Baie of Teacher Dance and I just know that I'd have to find it. Will check out the other review that you were also raving about. I like the activity you shard here as well - very nice! My 11 year old daughter would be having a historical fiction activity in class soon, will share this post of yours with her. :)GatheringBookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04477710897574769648noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22559214.post-62518847017271871412013-03-11T18:44:03.630-04:002013-03-11T18:44:03.630-04:00I couldn't guess even one of these :)) But it ...I couldn't guess even one of these :)) But it sure got me hooked.
