Newbery Challenge: Hitty: Her First Hundred Years
Mr. Sharp and I kick off the 1930s with Hitty: Her First Hundred Years.
Head on over to Mr. Sharp's blog to hear his thoughts on Hitty. Also, watch his "The 20s in Review" video.
At least Hitty never encountered a shark.
You can buy your own Hitty Preble doll and booklet for $27.00. The seller guarantees that Hitty slept overnight in the Preble house.
Travis Jonker is attempting to re-cover every Newbery-winning book. He designed the cover on the right.
Borrow Hitty: Her First Hundred Years from your school or public library. Whenever possible, please support independent bookshops.
Great video review. Have you ever read the adaptation by Rosemary Wells? Have a wonderful weekend.
ReplyDeleteYour video made me laugh out loud. I could absolutely picture you on Michigan Ave with the tourists trying to figure out what you were doing. :) Looking for that 60th anniversary edition now - awesome!
