In Episode 1 of the "Aaron Reynolds Stay at Home Show," Aaron Reynolds recommended that you read The Scrambled States of America by Laurie Keller. Well, Ms. Cahill thinks that all of Laurie Keller's books are pretty fabulous. And there are some pretty great recordings of her books.

If you drag your cursor over each book cover, you will get a box which tells you who is reading each book. Click on each book cover to take to a video recording of the story. Which one is your favorite? Please leave a comment below. Don't just list the title, but tell us why it's your favorite!

Cinco de Mouse-O!

​Switching to remote learning has been hard for Ms. Cahill. She really misses the interaction with her students in the library.
Picture
But one thing remote learning does offer is the ability to hear different people read stories. But for Cinco de Mouse-O! Ms. Cahill just couldn't choose between two different versions. 

In the first version, Ms. Cahill likes the fluency and expression of the reader.

In the second version, the reader has superior Spanish pronunciations .
Which version do you prefer? Please tell why in the comments below. Maybe you don't like either version. You can comment about that, too. Please use elements from the reading to support your position.
