A Glimpse into the Wonderful World of Literature with Grade 2!
Every morning, these little bookworms put pen to paper in their journals to share their thoughts about the story. It's fascinating to see the world from Fenway's perspective as he refers to the mother as the "Food Lady" and the father as the "Fetch guy."
One budding literary critic even mentioned that Fenway isn't a fan of the kitchen floor because it's oh-so-slippery! These insightful observations make our hearts swell with joy.
It's moments like these that remind us how magical the world of books can be. Keep reading, Grade 1!
