Today some of us were using 'into the  book' to help us with our summarising skills

A great collection of reads for the holidays

Thanks for all of the book recommendations that you left on the  blog last week.  I have put them onto a spreadsheet so they can be viewed easier.

The spreadsheet has been shared with you in your google docs so you can add a comment and all will be able to see.  You could also add a link to a book trailer to help encourage others to read a book that you have recommended.  One has been done for you.
