The Book I Can't Keep on the Shelf
WOW!
I finished reading TRAPPED by Michael Northrop.
It is so gripping and real, I CAN NOT WAIT to get this in the hands of my students! I ran into the library as soon as I finished and asked the librarian to order a set for literature circles.
Know a teen? Buy this book. Seriously. Northrop captures the teen voice perfectly and creates a believable, nightmarish premise. http://bit.ly/rYPziA
An epic snowstorm traps seven students inside their high school. It seems fun - at first. That is, until the power goes out...until the furnace stops working....until the snow keeps falling and falling.
