Online Stories

Jul2

I love reading to the kids in my class. They enjoy the rich world of the imagination of so many writers. During crunch and sip time I sometimes read to them or I go online and find online stories. Thanks to my wonderful friend @KBKonnected  there is another site that I will be visiting next term. It is by Barnes and Noble publishers and what a gem!
