The muddle

I just have to share the cutest book we found at the library last week. We can't decide if it's best enjoyed as a read-aloud or as an independent reader. Some sections are enjoyed best when seen in print while others were better appreciated as we discussed them further.

The book is A Beginning, A Muddle, and an End by Avi and it's subtitled The Right Way to Write Writing. It's the best almost-plotless book you'll ever read.

And at only 164 smaller-sized pages, it won't take much time away from that meaty summer read you're really into.
