If you liked Diary of a Wimpy Kid, try...

This morning I went into school and I was stopped by Mrs. Pat. Mrs. Pat helped in my classroom a little bit last year, and we became good friends. She shared that this weekend she was at Mid-Continent Public Library and came across a sheet that had some book titles that she thought I would like. She was right, I do!!! *grin*

On the top of the page, it says, "If you liked Diary of a Wimpy Kid, try..." Before I list the books, I should state that the only book I have read on the list is "Big Nate."

So for those of you hooked on Diary of a Wimpy Kid and need something new to read, you can check out some of these titles:

1. Dear Dumb Diary by Jim Benton
2. Diary of a Would-be Princess by Jessica Green
3. Dear Max by Sally Grindley
4. My Weird School Series by Dan Gutman
5. Underwhere Series by Bruce Hale
6. Babymouse Series by Jennifer L. Holm
7. Regarding the Fountain by Kate Klise
8. Stink: The Incredible Shrinking Kid by Megan McDonald
9. Amelia's Notebooks Series by Marissa Moss
10. Big Nate: In a Class by Himself by Lincoln Peirce
11. Dork Diaries by Rachel Renee Russell
12. Gorilla City by Charlie Small

I went into our library at school today and asked Mrs. Scott if we had Dear Max, as that book really interested me. She said that SVE didn't have it, but she would get it for me. One of the advantages of our School District is that we can borrow books from other schools. I LOVE that!

Anyway, I know that we have a SNOW DAY tomorrow, and I hope you have a book to read. I checked out a book today and already have a book going, so I am set!

From what I understand we have quite a storm headed our way, so PLEASE be safe and stay warm! This would be a GREAT opportunity to CURL UP with a good book! *grin*

Life.
Is.
GREAT!!!
