My Best Book List

As part of our end-of-year wrap up in 5th grade, I asked my students to compile their own #BestBookList. They could choose an overall theme or not. You can see all of their recommendations at #BestBookList. For individual book recommendations, check out our  #iLoveMG posts. If you are looking for younger readers, #3rdfor3rd features recommendations from when I taught third grade.

My Best Book List

Recommended by Joshy



Sugar and Spite is a good book about to kids that one has more money and is mean to the other kid so does something with potion and end up having a bad luck until her dog save her from keeping that bad luck. 

Super Boba Cafe is an interesting book about a rumble that keeps happening under the city and they have to fix it.

Percy Jackson (The Lightning Thief) is a great book about a teenager that has to find Zeus’s Master Bolt and stop a war between the gods. 

Where the Mountain Meets the Moon is a good book about a kid named Minli going to try and bring fortune to her family. 

Masterminds is a book where they are in a peaceful town but something is suspicious so they do something about it. There are 3 books in the series.

[A note from Katie: both Sugar and Spite and Super Boba Cafe were all-class read alouds where we were able to do Zoom visits with the authors afterwards. It's been so rewarding to see how often those two books appear on these end-of-year favorite lists. Author visits make such a difference!]
