Frankenstien


we are currently reading Frankenstein for our family read aloud, with Halloween upon us it seemed a fitting choice. We are enjoying it , and my step dad has the original movie he is gong to let us watch after we are done. The story has been good so far, we have only gotten past the chapters of the creature being made and of his killing the brother of Frankenstein. We are using a study guide along with it with plenty of discussion and vocabulary to go along with it. It has been a bit rainy this week so it has been a nice time to curl up by the fire and read it together. We should be done this weekend. Then we will begin the Witch Of Blackbird Pond.

I'll admit, Frankenstein freaked me out a little bit. Glad y'all are enjoying it though!
I think y'all will love The Witch of Blackbird Pond. It was one of my faves!
