“The author, Jennifer Jacobson, was an author in-residence at our school this year. She autographed a copy of this book for us. I read it as a read-aloud.
Her lessons to us were about 6 Traits writing. She shared some of her writing to highlight those traits. Overall, the book keeps true to those traits.
The story is a fun tale about Winnie, Vanessa, and Zoe going away to camp. Winnie is assigned to a different tent. In her desire to fit in, she finds herself lying to impress her new friends. Lies catch up and Winnie finds herself in a world of trouble when her father arrives for Visitors' Day.
I stopped reading right as Cookie asks Mr. Fletcher about his famous artist wife. I had the students write the rest of the scene. The children were excited with this writing assignment.”
