Kathy, for An Orange for Frankie. I'll have to get a copy! We had a snow ice day yesterday. Hope you're back at school and have finished the story. Chip Thanks for the recommendation.

I started the classic Christmas Carol and An Orange for Frankie this December. I have a fifth grade class whom are studying franctions so An Orange for Frankie is a must. Sadly, I have the room "staged" by the Christmas tree with eight oranges just like the page we are on in the book. The students have enjoyed, anticipated and predicted the ending. I just hope we can get back soon to study Christmas PAST. Kathy, Gr. 5 teacher, Spokane, WA After Christmas Greetings,
