*BELLETRIST JUNE BOOK CLUB PICK* Named a Best Book of May by TIME Magazine & Glamour One of NPR’s Best Books of the Year This darkly funny and provocative novel reimagines classic fairy tale characters as modern women in a support group for trauma. In present-day New York City, five women meet in a basement support group to process their traumas. Bernice grapples with the fallout of dating a psychopathic, blue-bearded billionaire. Ruby, once devoured by a wolf, now wears him as a coat. Gretel questions her memory of being held captive in a house made of candy. Ashlee, the winner of a Bachelor-esque dating show, wonders if she really got her promised fairy tale ending. And Raina's love story will shock them all. Though the women start out wary of one another, judging each other’s stories, gradually they begin to realize that they may have more in common than they supposed . . . What really brought them here? What secrets will they reveal? And is it too late for them to rescue each other? Dark, edgy, and wickedly funny, this debut for readers of Carmen Maria Machado, Kristen Arnett, and Kelly Link takes our coziest, most beloved childhood stories, exposes them as anti-feminist nightmares, and transforms them into a new kind of myth for grown-up women.

Woensdag! Of dydd Mercher zoals ze in Wales zouden zeggen. �
This weekend I packed five grocery bags of books to sell/donate. It’s always a bit sad to let go of books, but life needs a bit of order now and then. I have a strange relationship with physical books, especially at the moment of purchase and the moment of separation. For me books are aspirational, the promise to make you smarter, more artistic, more interesting. It’s almost as if every book is a self-help book, and surrounding oneself with books can increase confidence and d
Hello, everyone! Andrea here from Reading Toward the Stars to focus on an important aspect of: What is prosody? Merriam-Webster says that it is the rhythm and pattern of sounds of poetry and language. But, what does that mean when we are teaching students to read? So many times when we teach fluency, the students think we just want them to read fast, but fluency is so much more than reading fast. We want students to read at a steady pace, not too fast; not too slow; but just right. To achieve this, we have to teach our students prosody: pitch, stress, and timing to convey meaning when reading aloud. Every week, my various student groups work with poetry. On the first day we either read the poem together or choral read the poem, depending on the grade level. We talk about the poem to make sure we understand it. Throughout the week, we do various activities with the poem, like search for special words {sight words, important words, suffixes, prefixes, contractions, rhyming, etc.}. My third graders need a lot of work with prosody. They know the words in the poems, for the most part, but really need help with prosody. Many times they just zip through what they are reading and don't take time to think about how it should sound. I have started using one of my tried and true favorites for helping students with prosody ~ coding punctuation. We love to highlight different words in the poems, but my students really liked highlighting punctuation and then reading the poem like it should sound. After reading the poem really quickly, I had the students find the various types of punctuation in the poem. We started with the question mark and talked about how it would sound when we read it. We highlighted it and practiced that one line as a question and not as a question. We talked about how it should sound and why. Then we moved on to mark all of the periods in the poem and talked about how we needed to take a breath. We practiced the poem with and without the periods. So funny to hear them almost lose their breath without the periods! The last thing we coded were the words in all caps. We talked about how we needed to read them loudly, as if we were shouting. Then we practiced it. This was, by far, their favorite! I reminded my group that they did not just have to read like this with poetry, but that they should read like this ALL the time. I gave them these bookmarks to keep with them to help them remember how to read with prosody, or emotion as we call it. You can grab this freebie {here} or by clicking on the picture below. I want to leave you with some great places to get some free poems and passages to help students read with emotion.

In 1977, Scarfolk Council was disconcerted to learn that poor citizens and immigrants had figured out how to call the emergency services. The council quickly launched a new number, which it claimed would better handle the increasing volume of emergency calls, and after three years the government proudly announced a significant decrease in emergency calls overall. However, the telephone number (when it was finally identified) was traced to an answering machine in an industrial estate portacabin, which was completely deserted. When questioned about the unattended service, a council spokesman stated that the intention was to "empower average and below-average people by enabling them to find their own solutions to problems which are probably the result of their own negligent actions in the first place." Fully-working emergency services, which were of course funded by the taxpayer and the sale of undesirables to mediocre countries, were still available, but only to a select group of invited people, many of whom were banking and corporate magnates, as well as politicians, their friends, families and pets. Emergencies most often reported included: strain brought on by stirring Martinis and not being able to reach the television from the bed to change channels. Additionally, the fire service was frequently called upon by beneficiaries to hose down citizens picketing their country estates.
