Dear Readers,

When I started teaching... I started reading. I read all the 6-8 grade literature and then more. I now LOVE reading and ALWAY have a book on my dresser. Reading lets my mind wonder into a new world without diapers and crying babies. But reading is more fun when you share. For this blog I will write about the GOOD books I read. I will write about books that are worthy of reading and ones I truly recommend. Enjoy your readings.

Falling Leaves by Adeline yesn Mah



I love memoirs and I am truly fascinated by the Chinese Culture. Therefore this book was everything I wanted and more. Adeline tells her story of growing in China (born in 1837) to a wealthy family. Her Step-Mother favored her own children and was a typical strik Chinese mother (showing no love). I really enjoyed reading about what happened during Mao's rule in the early 1850's. I grew to love Adeline and her desire to be loved.
