The Legend of Spud Murphy
This book was recommended to me by one of the first grade classes that read it as a read aloud. First graders (and second graders) will love this silly book as a read aloud. Some would be able to read it independently. I can see 3rd, 4th, and
5th graders also enjoy reading it as a "fun" book. The two brothers in the book are "sentenced" to spending 3 afternoons a week at the library. They are terrified of the librarian, Spud Murphy as there are rumors that she has a "spud gun" under her desk and is ready to use it on any child that makes a noise or ventures off the carpet. As they are serving their sentence however, the boys discover they actually might enjoy reading!
Grade Level: 2nd, - 5th
Read Aloud: 1st - up
