March "Book" Madness

My Cute Graphics

Whenever I think of March, I always think of March madness. This year Mrs. Bulvin and I wanted to do something different so we did a March "book" madness. We chose many different picture books to start us off. It was a mixture of Caldecott award winners and some really great more recently published picture books. Below are the groupings that we started with.

The Adventures of Beekle versus Scaredy Squirrel at the Beach

Nana in the City versus Me...Jane

Hooray for Hat versus This is Not My Hat

Sleep Like a Tiger versus Kitten's First Full Moon

Perfect Square versus Not a Stick

Red Sings from Treetops versus Green

First the Egg versus Bats at the Library

Chester versus Chloe and the Lion

Sam and Dave Dig a Hole versus A Couple of Boys Have the Best Week Ever

Flora and the Flamingo versus Shark vs Train

Extra Yarn versus Some Smug Slug

Have I Got a Book For You versus The Book With No Pictures

One Cool Friend versus Penguin on Vacation 

Dog Loves Books versus A Ball for Daisy

Gone Wild versus Carnivores

Frankie Stein versus My Teacher is a Monster

Students were given the opportunity during class time and checkout time to read the pairs of books and vote. It's very interesting to see their reactions to the different books. And see the difference in the primary students likes versus the intermediate students likes. Some of our races were close and we narrowed the field down last week to the "Sweet Sixteen" matches.

The Adventures of Beekle versus Me...Jane

Check back later this week to see our "Elite Eight". 

Happy Reading!!
