LET’S MEET OTHERS!

Good morning guys,

Now you already know that I am a great fan of all of you reading books so that you can learn so much more.  Remember that in the pages of a book you can be anyone you want to be.  You can be an astronaut, a princess, a king, a nurse or doctor. Why you can even be a deep sea diver or an animal trainer!

There’s another great advantage to reading books.  You get to meet other kids and people from around the world.  I wonder what a child about 9 years old living in South Africa or Japan does first thing in the morning when it’s time to get ready for school. Are their schools like our schools?  Do they eat fun snacks and go to the movies like some of us here do?  Does a teenager in other lands have graduation ceremonies like our graduating teens do? How do they dress and why do they dress the way that they do?  I’m sure that kids from other places around the world ask the same questions about us.  

Hi there. Meet me in the pages of a book.

You know how to get your answers?  Sure you do! Read a book from the library about other cultures. Cultures, that an interesting word. What does it mean?  Well, I looked it up in a book called the dictionary. A dictionary has thousands of words in it with their different meanings.  

Cultures in short means: “the customs, social institutions and achievements of a particular nation.”

So, when you pick up a book about people in Haiti or Egypt, you read about what they do and why they do as they do.   It’s great to read a book guys! Let’s continue to enjoy our Summer with trips, fun activities, picnics, swimming, and more. But please remember there’s more fun in the pages of a book than most anywhere else.  Check out about other kids around the world before the Summer ends.  You’ll love it.

See ya,

Jenny

SUMMER IS IN FULL SWING- WHAT ABOUT YOUR READING?

Hi Guys,

Can you see my friend Jen, above.  She’s reading a book and has two more books to read.  She loves to read. Even though she has already been on a summer vacation with her family, and went to the amusement park with her friends, she hasn’t forgotten to read during this Summer.  

I am sending all of you this short reminder to be sure that you visit your local library or favorite book store and get some books to read. The books don’t have to been hundreds of pages long for you to read, unless you want that kind of book.   Wow! That’s a great idea.  Go to the library and ask the librarian for a good long book that’s age appropriate for you and determine to read 20 minutes a day until school starts again.  If you finish that book before school begins, great!  If not, just keep on reading until you do.  Guess what? You’ll have read so much that when the new text books are given out and assignments on your tablet are downloaded, you’ll already be in good reading practice and will ace any of your assignments!

So, until next time, let’s get our minds sharpened and our eyes roving over those pages in our favorite books.  Keep having good fun this Summer.  

I almost forgot.  I have two new books coming out later this year.  One is called “Junior Rabbit Travels to New York,” and the other is “Junior Rabbit Travels Home.”  I’ll let you know when they come out so you can add them to your collection of children’s books. One more thing, when you get to the library, watch out for falling books!

Talk to you later,

Jenny

MARCH IS READING MONTH!

Hi Guys,

It is reading month this whole month! I am so excited!

Here’s the challenge:  Let’s all read 15 to 20 minutes each day. Ready, set, read.  Also, if you need something to read to your little brothers, little sisters, and nieces and nephews, ask Mom and Dad to get my books in the Junior Rabbit Series.  You can order them on Amazon.com.  Try reading and enjoying my book entitled “Junior Rabbit Goes to Pennsylvania.  He’s on a great adventure.

Well, I have to go now, but remember this, reading opens up the world to you.

In the pages of a book you can be whoever you want to be.  Let’s get reading!!

THE NEW YEAR ROCKS!

 

Hi Guys,

I’ve been so busy writing my books, which is good; but I missed saying Happy New Year to you all.  

I am so excited for what the new year will bring for all of us.  One thing I want it to bring is more reading fun!  I’ve got two new books just waiting to be published.  I already have one that was published late last year called Junior Rabbit Travels to Pennsylvania.  He’s on the adventure of his life.  I sure hope that all of you purchase it on Amazon.com.

Well, until next time, remember Reading Rocks in 2019, too!

Jenny

 

 

 

READING REALLY ROCKS!

Hi Guys,

My friend Book man is here to talk to you.

Hi there fellow readers.  If there is one really good habit that we should have, it the habit of reading. The Library is the best place to be.  If you go to the library, you’ll see people sitting reading the newspapers and even magazines. You’ll see people buying older books and even videos to take home and watch.  

Now you might say, but I have an iPad or a tablet or a cell phone.  THAT’S GREAT! You can read on your tablet and phone, too.  I know one thing for sure.  Whatever you do, and even if you are at home, take your phone and pull up a story, download it and read it.  Guys, remember reading opens up the world to you.  So, LET’S ROCK!

FUN AT SCHOOL CHECKLIST

Wow! The summer is almost over, and in a few weeks, school will be back in session.  Now, I know that some might be saying, “Awww… I don’t want to go back to school right now. I’M HAVING TOO MUCH FUN!  That’s great that you have had a fun time for the months you’ve been away from school.  In fact, you should be ready to go back to school because remember, school is fun, too!

 

At school you can:

• See your friends you may not have seen during the summer
• Get into that after school club you’ve been wanting to get into
• Join the football, baseball, soccer, track, tennis, and more teams
• Help make school a better place by volunteering to clean up around the outside of your school
• Become a member of the student council at school, helping the voice of the students to be heard
• Volunteer to read to the kids in the school Library
• Help plan the next school grounds events

I mean there are so many fun and wonderful things you can do at school. So, now look forward to going back to school.  You’ll have fun there, too.  Oh yes, and remember read a book about 20 minutes every day. The world opens up to anyone who reads a book!

Talk to you later.

Hi Guys,

It’s me Jenny. I have been so busy, but I wanted to stop and say Happy New  Year to all of you. I have a book coming out soon. Junior Rabbit Travels to Pennsylvania. I told you about it before, I think. But, anyway. I want to know if you all are doing your best in school and I really want to know if you all are reading and making trips to the Library. Remember what I told you before, “Reading opens up the world to you.”  So, let’s get reading.

I’ll talk to you again real soon. Here’s a picture of my new book cover.

CHECKIN’ IN

 

Hi Guys,

Well, I had to check in with you and with your parents right now. For many of you, school has been in since September 5, 2017; so that’s about 2-1/2 to 3 weeks. How’s it going? Are you getting your study habits back? Do you have all of your school supplies? Are you practicing your favorite sport? Are you still reading? Is your library card current?

Remember, reading opens the world to you. I have so much to share with you and your parents this semester. I want to hear from you and your parents some good tips that I can share on this blog and I want to hear of all your accomplishments in school. Maybe you can share a picture with me so that I can feature it on my blog. 

What you do can inspire some other students to do their best. So, here’s to a great school year!

Jenny

JUNIOR RABBIT IN ON THE MOVE!

Hi Guys,

Boy, oh boy! It has been a while since I was able to talk to you guys. But I want you to know that I’ve had a time, keeping up with my friend Junior Rabbit.  He’s on the go right now. I have to find out where he is because he’s been traveling. You’ll find out, too, in a couple of months where his first adventure will be. 

 

 

Now remember guys, it’s Summer and there’s so much fun to be had. You’ll be visiting friends in different states, going to the park and amusements parks, having barbeques, swimming, bike riding, scooter riding and so much more.

 

Just don’t forget that while you’re having all of that fun, there’s a world of fun to be had at the Library. At the Library you can get a book about origami and how to make figures, you can even become the hero in a far away country. You can help others who don’t have what you have. You know that your little brothers and sisters and you little cousins and nieces and nephews will love to have you read Junior Rabbit to them and even Loony the Loon to them. They will laugh at the funny sounds you make while they imagine the story you are reading to them. So, let’s be sure that reading a book a day is on our list of fun things to do this Summer.

 

Talk to you later! I’m on my way to a family reunion!

Jenny
