Now here's a book that brings back memories of all that was sixth grade...including cardboard rocket ships & finding myself beginning my adolescence. The former because my sixth grade teacher was very excited about these juvenile style rockets & formed them into his teaching plans annually. The latter because, well, life happens, & with it comes adolescent years. 😁I'd planned to keep the book posts this month in the order, or very close to the order, of which I'd originally read them. This plan has failed with this post, if not beforehand, as I definitely read these, these, these, & these after I read this. Yet once I happened upon this book in a listing, it flooded back many memories (& for once, they weren't all bad 😂) - I thought to share.
This was a book assigned as part of class. And it being decades ago, I don't recall the specifics, though I remember it being a monumental part of our sixth grade class year. Our teacher was fascinated with the book & its themes; he [our teacher] made the book's plot exciting & interesting; my classmates & I were made intrigued to keep turning the book's pages by our teacher's enthusiasm. One could say that's the making of an excellent - of an extra special teacher.
This original book has had follow up books written as well - which are all included in this book. The follow-up books weren't a part of my sixth grade year, though, by their publishing dates, I'm sure they were a part of the sixth grade year of classes years after my own. 😉 Particularly if they were graced to be educated by the same sixth grade teacher as I was. 😊
