Utilizing questioning methods that scientists use to further their understanding and solve problems, “the questioners” are a terrific blend of science and fun.

Blaze of Light is quite outside of the types of books I usually read, but I am so glad I read it. This amazing true story is incredibly powerful and inspiring. Gary Beikirch is truly an American hero both on the battlefield and in life. While this complimentary book was provided for review by WaterBrook Multnomah, no other compensation was given. All remarks are my personal and honest opinions.
I Wish You More is a delightful book filled with wishes for the future. It is a great text to use at the end of the year with students, but it is also a great option that can be used at the beginning of the year as you discuss classroom expectations and goals for the school year and beyond with learners of varying ages.
