Lunch With Punch, A (Rookie Readers) by Jo S. Kittinger
A boy packs his lunch with delicious items, and then shares it with a friend who has forgotten his own lunch at school.
This biography tells the life story of George Washington Carver and his accomplishments.
When I was in fifth grade, we did an invention convention and I did a report on George Washington Carver. I consider this book to be an excellent representation of facts on George Washington Carver, the book had a lot of graphs to help all different types of readers. Overall, I think this is a wonderful book and I would love to keep it in my future classroom.
