The Best Book Deals this Week December 27, 2020

I often get lots of questions from other teachers about building a classroom library without breaking the bank, so each week, I share 4-7 books that are on sale right now. I also share books that YOU might like to read as well!

If you see other great deals, I'd love if you would let me know about them!

BOOK DEALS YOU DON'T WANT TO MISS THIS WEEK!

The Crayon Man: The True Story of the Invention of Crayola Crayons is about the true story of the invention of the Crayola Crayons.  Since almost all kids love to color, they will be instantly engaged and interested in the story!  

In addition to the non-fiction information in the book, it would make a great mentor text for using interesting adjectives - check out the first page!

One of my Christmas gifts was Jodi Picoult's newest book, The Book of Two Ways.  I have loved everything she has ever written!  I am about one fourth of the way through with this one, and it is another winner!

It's about a woman who survives a plane crash, but then begins to reevaluate the choices that she has made in her life.  

 It's on sale for 50% off right now!

Another book under the tree for me this year was Dark Tides by Philippa Gregory (another favorite author of mine).

If you aren't familiar with her work, she is a historical fiction writer, primarily writing about England Aristocracy.

This book is the second in a series that tells the story of the rise of the Tidelands family in London, Venice, and New England in the late 1600's.

 

If your students are fans of the Babysitter's Club Graphic novels, they will be so excited to hear that the newest book, Claudia and the New Girl is going to be released in February!  

When you pre-order books on Amazon, like this one, you can lock in a great sale price, and the book will arrive on publication day!
