Switcheroo

Have you ever thought about switching places with someone for the day? When I was a kid I wanted to be Mary-Kate and Ashley Olson...well actually mostly Ashley. I even tried to get my mom to change my name to Ashley..what was I thinking?!? But seriously...I mean who didn't love Holiday in the Sun and Our lips are Sealed



Well in Nancy Krulik's books she writes about a girl named Katie who has the ability to instantly switch bodies with others. But just because she can switch bodies doesn't mean she gains the same abilities of the other person. In this story Katie Kazzo Switcheroo On Thin Ice, Katie switches with a famous ice skater on the night of her big performance. Katie learns a few life lessons in this funny story which all kids can relate to. 


This book is a great book club book for a group of girls. It will not only teach them to read and comprehend but there are some great morals to the story as well. We can learn from Katie to appreciate what we have, not to envy others, and to keep going even if we mess up. I love being able to read books with the kids that they enjoy but also have deep learning rooted inside. Ready to use this with your guided groups? Just hop on over to TPT purchase, print, and your are ready to go!
