We are excited to kick off the first 4th and 5th grade boys book club with The Wild Robot by Peter Brown. The Wild Robot can be summed up as follows:
When robot Roz opens her eyes for the first time, she discovers that she is alone on a remote, wild island. Why is she there? Where did she come from? And, most important, how will she survive in her harsh surroundings?
Roz’s only hope is to learn from the island’s hostile animal inhabitants. When she tries to care for an orphaned gosling, the other animals finally decide to help, and the island starts to feel like home. Until one day, the robot’s mysterious past comes back to haunt her…
It also happens to be a 2017-18 Georgia Book Award and we are super excited to celebrate this book by reading it for our first book club event. Our first book club will take place on Monday, September 11th at 7:30am in the LS Media Center. We will have breakfast treats that tie into the theme of the book, activities, and discussion.
If you would like to check out a Kindle or an iPad with the Kindle app from the LS media center to read the month's book club book, please have a parent complete this form, which can be turned into the Media Center.
5th Graders: If you would like to bring in your own e-Reader for book club, please complete the Acceptable Use Policy Form and return it to Myla Young in the administration office.
