Summary: Soup and me
Review: I am reading a book called Soup and Me by Robert Newton Peck. Although no pacific date was given my opinon is that this story took place around the 1950's. The story took place in a small town in Vermont. This story is about two boys named soup and Rob who are always into trouble. Soup is one of the main characters in this book.Soup is a very caring boy and has a great imagination. He is always looking for something to do and to get into. Rob says in the book that when Soup moves a certen way or does something in a certain way thats how he knows when Soup is being serious. For example when he kicks a rock in a certain direction. Rob on the other hand is always trying to be funny when people are down.Like when Soup was hurt from being ran over by a girl, Rob tried o cheer him up by making a funny joke. He is always into trouble with his mother and Aunt, whom he lives with, like when he is late for choren time. I liked this book because it tells how kids our age were back in the 1950's. I love fun books. I think this book would be good for fith through seventh graders because it's about things boy's our age do and how they fix their mistakes.

Review: My preschool class really enjoyed it; our broccoli became trees at lunch! Imaginative and thought provoking reading for preschoolers. Now it's hard to find an available copy at the public library!

Summary: A great interactive read
Review: My second grade class loved guessing what word the boy would spell next to get him out of his predicament. They were so creative in their ideas and came up with multiple solutions to the problems. It even got them excited to try out spelling new words.
