When it comes to picking must-have chapter books for your child’s home library, teachers understand exactly which ones will capture your child’s attention and help them become even stronger readers.
For instance, fourth-grade teachers Marissa Jordening and Kelly Matthews both love the book Restart, a wonderful story that captures the complexity of growing up and starting over. “This book can serve as a great conversation starter about the impact of a single person for both good and bad,” says Jordening.
Matthews also notes how this book is a great way to inspire a dialogue about bullying and the pain that often results from it. “It gives students a chance to see how one small accident can change everything,” she says.
