Hi Harry,
Your library sounds like lots of fun. You are lucky to have Thorndyke to help you find great books to read. I am really glad you wrote to me. I had fun blogging with you. I hope you will visit me again. We can read more books together. Did you get one of my bookmarks, too?
Stay warm and safe in the snow!

Hi Thorndyke,
Oh, my reading and writing teacher, Kathleen, gave me the idea for refrigerator words. Moosey-Moose and I like to use different colored posty-notes. The refrigerator looks like a rainbow when we put a lot of posty-notes up!
I am proud of my friend, Moosey-Moose, too. He did a super job reading with me.
The snow is not here, yet. But it is COLD. I have a fur coat, too, but I also have a sweater to wear. Ever since I got sick a few weeks ago. That was not fun. Did you read what Moosey-Moose did for me when I was sick? He made scones!
Thorndyke, I’m really glad you are my new Best Book Buddy.

Hi Harry,
I have read GOOD NIGHT MOON. That is one of my most favorite stories, especially just before I go to sleep.
I have not read ELEPHANT AND PIGGIE. Maybe I should get that one at my library. Will you read it with me if I get the book?
One of my favorite books is A VISITOR FOR BEAR by Bonnie Becker. The author lives in Seattle. She signed my book for me. She is a really nice lady.

Hi Thorndyke,
That’s a good word, personality. I have to use a dictionary to find out what it means. Let me check.
Ok, I’m back. The dictionary says it means the part that makes one person different from another person. I’ll try to use it in a sentence. Hmmm, Ok, how about this: I have a shy personality. Do you think that makes sense?
Moosey-Moose thought there were tricky words, too. Do you have more to share? I like to write tricky words on post-it notes and then I put them on the refrigerator so I can learn them. I call them refrigerator words!

Hi Harry,
I agree, the map is like a maze. I think I would get lost.
Moosey-Moose is one of my best friends. He is very adventurous and likes to travel. I mostly stay home and then he tells me where he went.
I also live with a dog named Tsavo. The T is silent. One time I read a book to her. I might try that again.
Another friend I have is Flower. Well, she’s really Moosey-Moose’s friend but I call her my friend, too.
Oh, and best of all, I have all my friends who read and write to me on my blog. Do you like to read? What are your favorite books?

Hi Thorndyke, and hello to Harry,
Yes, I really liked the story. Scaredy Squirrel is a lot like me. I’m a scaredy bear sometimes. I would not want to be bitten by a walrus, either!
Harry, what is your favorite part of the story?

Hi Book Buddies!
Today I’m reading SCAREDY SQUIRREL MAKES A FRIEND by Melanie Watts. I’m reading with my new Best Book Buddy, Thorndyke. He is all the way in Canton, Michigan. He has invited all his book buddies at his library where he lives to join him. I hope they write to me.
I invited my best friend, Moosey-Moose to join me here.
I made us both a cup of hot cocoa with goo-gobs of whippy cream!
It’s really cold in Seattle and the weather man said it will snow later today. This is the best perfect day! Spending it with new friends, old friends, reading together and drinking hot cocoa to stay warm.
Your Book Buddy,
Sleepy Bear
