It's Monday! What are you reading?

Our kindergarten, first, and second graders voted for their favorite Armadillo Readers' Choice book last week.  After tallying 593 votes, the results are in!

The overall winner for our kindergarten classes is My Awesome Summer by P. Mantis, written and illustrated by Paul Meisel:
We learned a lot about praying mantises while reading this in the Book Nook.  Did you know that they are the only insect that can swivel its head like we can?

Our first grade winner is You Don't Want a Unicorn by Ame Dyckman, illustrated by Liz Climo:
Unicorns are not the best pets--they shed glitter, eat the carpet, get their horn stuck in the ceiling...if you need more reasons, get this book!

The winner for our second grade voters is Apples and Robins by Lucie Felix:
I was a bit surprised by this result!  Felix's book has sparse text, but amazing cut-out artwork.  The second graders truly appreciated the hard work it must have been for Felix to figure out just where to place the holes in the pages to create the pictures.

The overall winner for our school is You Don't Want a Unicorn, with 125 votes.  Second place is Wanted! Ralfy Rabbit, Book Burglar with 98 votes, and in third place, My Awesome Summer by P. Mantis, with 74 votes.  Next week, we will find out the winners for our district!
