Books Buddies

I'm SOOO excited!!!!  Look what came in the mail today:

I bought these bright, colorful totes from Oriental Trading and couldn't be happier.  They were just what I was hoping for!  I'm going to be filling them with books for the students to take home each week.  Here are some of the books I'll be putting inside:

Each tote will hold six books that vary in genre and reading level.  The kiddos will be able to check out a Book Buddy on Monday and keep it at home until Thursday.  What a great way to practice nightly reading!!
