I Want a Story That Goes On and On and On . . . .

Series books are always popular.  Kids love the continuity of reading series.  The characters are familiar and the story just keeps going on.  So this week, I'm sharing some great chapter book series that you might not be as familiar with yet . . . .

Moving Day by Meg Cabot
Allie Finkle's Rules for Girls series
Nine-year-old Allie Finkle has rules for everything and is even writing her own rule book, but her world is turned upside-down when she learns that her family is moving across town, which will mean a new house, school, best friend, and plenty of new rules.

Spaceheadz by Jon Scieszka
