What an engaging and delightful story! My favorite part about this book is that depicts a student that dislikes school until a unique teacher shows him how reading can be fun. Miss Smith is an edgy teacher in terms of dress and hair, but shares her passion of reading with her students. When she is late one day and the principal reads from her book, all of the characters jump into real life. Before anyone can put the characters back, as more stories are half read, more characters jump out. We see cameos from Goldilocks, the Mad Hatter, pirates, Little Red Riding Hood and knights in shining armor. This story is definitely a good choice for a read aloud. ( )

I really enjoyed this book because every kid can get bored of reading but this book shows how the story tales can really come to life and how to just use your imagination. There were great illustrations and I was really drawn into the book. I would defiently read this to my class! ( )

This is a book about a boy who is bored with school, until he is introduced to his new teacher's storytime. The stories acually come to life as she reads them. One day when she is late to class the principle starts reading from her magic book and things get out of hand. All the characters come alive and refuse to go back into the book.
I think this book is wonderfully written and the illustrations are colorful and bright. I think this would be a great book for all ages.
This would be a great book to read to a class at the begining of the year to catch the children's attention. There is also a lot of oppurtunity for discussion about all the interesting character's that is in the book.
