Spring Break!

Hope everyone is enjoying their Spring Break as much as I am.  Even though around here it doesn't feel a whole lot like Spring.  I'm taking this time to do some Spring Cleaning at my house.

I've got two book suggestions for you about cleaning.  The books can be placed on hold at the Public Library or through their catalog.  

The first suggestion is a nonfiction book, Cleaning the House by John Malam.  This book describes how people have handled household tasks such as dusting, sweeping and trash disposal since the Stone Age and discusses the invention of such cleaning items as the vacuum cleaner and dishwasher, the discovery of soap and more.

The second suggestion is a fiction picture book, Diggy Dan: A Room-Cleaning Adventure by Daniel Kamish.  Dan becomes an archaeologist, a pirate, an Outer Space Man and other resourceful characters as he clears out the monumental mess in his room.  This is a favorite of mine.  We also have this book in our collection at HES.  

I'll be posting some student book reviews later on today and this week.  I also will be posting about some apps that we have been using in our Media classes to support what is going on in the classroom.

Happy Reading!!
