May is the perfect time of year to get your middle grade readers hooked on a new book series—right in time for summer! The best-selling Beyonders series by Brandon Mull is filled with intrigue. Visit the author’s website, www.brandonmull.com, for videos in which the author discusses what motivates him to write and shares writing tips. In The Merits of Mischief, 12-year-old Seamus gets sent to a special school—one that molds future troublemakers! The website features a Hoodlum Hotline, Troublemakers handbook, and more. Finally, hook students on the Jack Blank series with the author videos on VYou plus an author podcast. And that’s just for starters! Click here to check it out!

I entered the Learning magazine contests last week. Love them.
I love the Harry’s Big Adventure contest. Sure hope I win.
I also entered the Harry’s Big Adventure contest. It sounds like a fun one with lots of hands-on science things my kiddos would enjoy!!
The scissors.
Learning contest.
I love the scissors one!
I would like the scissors.
I love the contests at Learning
Magazine!
I would love the contests at Learning Magazine. We could use these resources, supplies and materials at our school.
I love the Westcott offer. They are great scissors, for both small hands and large ones! I always recommend them to the parents.
I love these scissors! They are the best!
Harry’s Big Adventure would be a big hit with my students.
As I strive to keep my classroom library fresh during SSR/DEAR/Read to Self (whatever we call it), I would honor the books sent to me by getting them in the hands of my students!
Thank you!
The Beyonders is an AWESOME series! The only thing I hate on a personal note is having to wait for the next book to come out!
