Winter Chapter Books

I thought it might be fun to throw in a few winter-themed chapter books! I tried to select really great reading material for the middles grades, but they can also make fun read alouds.

Some are classics, like The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe. Others like the Hank the Cowdog series are funny. Then, there are others that are mysteries, like The Boxcar Children, and Nancy Drew and the Clue Crew.

    […] We were so thrilled to get our first snow of the season! It was white, fluffy, and gloriously cold! So cold in fact that, if out long enough, your face and hands hurt! The children pointed out that when the sun’s rays hit it just right; it looked like millions of diamonds covering the ground. Of course, the first thing I wanted to do, while the big fluffy flakes fell, was curl up together and read aloud. […]
