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.

Hotel on the Corner of Bitter and Sweet

I don't remember who recommended this book to me but I am now recommending it to everyone.  This is a story of a Japanese Family and a Chinese Family growing up in Seattle, WA during WWII.  I had no idea how bad we treated the American-Japanese!!!  It was so sad to read about the things the US government put them through.  In the end of course everything works out.  I loved the ending in fact.  It was one of those endings were you get to decide what really happens.
