The Texas Bluebonnet Books are a list of 20 distinguished books selected by a committee of Texas school librarians for students in grades 3-6. According to the committee coordinator, Jacqui Bridges-Sheppherd, these books were chosen because they "act as windows into reality and imaginary worlds while offering a view into someone else’s experiences; and mirrors that reflect a reader’s own life or culture while building their identity. This literature also keeps students' interests in mind and provides positive reviews for parents, teachers and librarians."

Do you have a student who can't seem to find a book and stick with it? A student who is unmotivated to read? A student in a reading "rut"? Use this form to nominate them for Reader's Advisory with Mrs. Simons. I will work with each student to help them find books they are excited to read!
