Offical Count

I had about 90 trick or treaters and about 70 books were released. It was great fun. I had the porch set up so that once again the books were the main focus and that I had to tell them were the treats were. I was impressed once again how many were excited to get the books. Maybe next year I'll find a way to attach the candy to the book, so they have to take a book to get the candy. Something to think about.

I still have a few books, but some I can give to a friend for his classroom, as he wants the Newberry Medal winners. I know his kids always enjoy getting books.

Well, I'm almost all set. I have over 300 books to release, though I'm sure not all will be taken. I just have to readjust how I will have them displayed this Halloween. I have them seperated in to 4 groups by the different reading levels. RL 1-2, RL 3-4, RL 5-6, and RL 7-8. I think last time I did this I had RL 1-4 together and RL 5-8 together, which I might do again this year, it'll be simpler, we'll see.

Soon, very soon...

It's almost Halloween, are you ready?
Here is a site you can visit that will help you for giving books for treats, whether or not you are into bookcrossing.

I hope to up my books amount on Sunday at a local book sale. I'm going for any and all, I don't think I mind so much if they aren't Halloween releated. So then I just have to regisiter the books, set up the porch, carve my pumpkins, oh what fun!!!!
