HOW TO STEAL A DOG (READ-ALOUD)


Our class read-aloud is HOW TO STEAL A DOG by Barbara O'Connor.
We all love this book and we do not want the story to end. The book's main character is a girl named Georgina and she is very poor and lonely. One student in our class said that this book teaches you to be thankful for what you have. Another student said that when you are reading the book, you feel like you are in the book.
As Mrs. Alaniz reads the book aloud to us, we respond in our Reader's Notebooks. We sketch the pictures we see in our minds, we write predictions, or we ask questions. We ask a lot of questions. (We also like to ask and answer our own questions.)  Mrs. Alaniz says that's a good thing.

Have you read HOW TO STEAL A DOG?

P.S. Barbara O'Connor knows we are reading this book. Isn't that awesome?
