Eleven-year-old Nicholas Vargas only thinks his life has been turned upside down after his developer father remarries and moves his new wife and daughter into the soon-to-be completed Mangrove Hollow. But an "expedition" to a nearby lake turns up a little nixie with a giant problem - the huge, lumbering, fire-breathing variety - and it's up to Nick; his stepsister, Laurie; and his big brother, Julian (plus a familiar face from the original Spiderwick Chronicles) to figure out the best way to stop a host of rampaging giants before all of Florida goes up in smoke.
Personalized Reading by Nancy Hobbs,Kristen Sacco,Myra R. Oleynik Pdf
This guidebook provides teachers and librarians with methods for collaboratively teaching elementary students to select books they will enjoy and which will further their personal growth and information literacy. Motivating young students to read is instrumental for the development of strong information literacy and communication skills, as well as for building a lifelong habit of seeking information and enjoyment through written materials. The authors of Personalized Reading: It's a Piece of PIE are three highly experienced teachers, one of whom is a school librarian. This text describes the steps of the PIE program in detail, including chapters on selecting a book, reading it, writing about it, and extending beyond that title. Utilizing the PIE program will teach students to make selections at an appropriate reading level, expand from choosing titles in the same genre or from the same author, and recognize and abandon a book of low interest to them. Within each chapter are explanations of the theories behind each step and practical ideas that teachers and librarians can implement collaboratively in the classroom and library.

A Giant Problem by Tony DiTerlizzi,Holly Black Pdf
Talk about out of the frying pan, into the fire! I was pretty sure that my freaky stepsister and that freaky field guide of hers would ruin my life.

Maybe all these stupid giants would be waking up anyway, but if it wasn't for her and that book, I'd be home playing video games and this would be someone else's giant problem!
