Thursday night reading

When we're at Melissa's, we usually read a book or two - it's nice to pick from someone else's bookcase but we read nothing this week. At home we read:

• Stella, Star of the Sea by Marie-Louise Gay - Reid laughed at the idea of shooting stars learning to swim.
• The Stormy Day Rescue, a Clifford the Big Red Dog book by Kimberly Weinberger and illustrated by Del and Dana Thompson - poor Clifford, everyone tells him not to dig in this place or that but no one tells him where it is okay to dig.
• The Little Red Sled, a Clifford Puppy Days book by Tisha Hamilton and illustrated by Steve Haefele - I like the resourcefulness of the Sidorskys and wonder what happened to them when Clifford, Emily Elizabeth and her parents moved to Birdwell Island.
• Clifford's Busy Week by Norman Bridwell - Reid is interested in days of the week and Clifford; this book delivers both.
