Book Boys

 Nolan still isn't a big fan of reading for pleasure so I gathered up a group of boys from our street (with the help of their moms) to form a book club.  The hope is that the incentive for a fun book club meeting with his friends will get him reading more.  Especially if he knows the other boys are reading the same book and will be able to talk about it at the meeting.  

To get the boys excited and to ease them into the reading, we picked a silly book called "I Need a New Butt."  It was below their reading levels but it definitely got their attention.  They each had to create their own new butt and write a description about it as well.  The winner (a butt with a spring to push you back up if you fall) got a $15 Target gift card.  After the book "discussion" the boys played and had pizza.

The boys picked a graphic novel for their next meeting and the Rezkallas offered to host.  Since they have a pool in the backyard, I'm sure it will be an extra fun meeting.
