Recommended Read

Ms. Plum IS magical! And so is this book. Ms. Plum is the 3rd grade teacher that every kid wants. Why? Because she's interesting (allows animals and candy in her classroom), she cares about her students' hearts as well as their grades, and she guides them in important and unexpected ways that have nothing to do with math or reading. How? With her mysterious supply closet, which contains just what each of them needs. This one is 104 pages of positively, yes, magical prose. Here's the pertinent details + publisher's summary --

THE MAGICAL MS. PLUM by Bonny Becker (New York: Alfred A. Knopf, c2009). Summary: The students in Ms. Plum's third-grade class soon learn that there is something very special about their teacher and her classroom's mysterious supply closet.
