bookshelves: realistic-fiction

Level- Elementary
This is a book that I use as a mentor text in writers' workshop. It uses great descriptive language and is great when teaching personal narrative. My students love the sounds of the train whistle and train track. The book Big Momma is another great story written by Don Crews. I am going to do an author study this year with some other Crews books.

Chalice This is wonderful to teach personal narrative- along with My Rotten Redheaded Brother and Author Author by Helen Lester. Any other good personal narratives that are good mentor texts?
