Great resource, I'm using this with a unit on Growing Up is Difficult and this was one of the books I used.

I like Beverly Cleary's book,Dear Mr. Henshaw.I like it because in the story a boy wrote to an author named Mr. Henshaw.He wrote to him because his teacher read one of his books.A year after he wrote to him again,about another one of his books.He will write to him until he is in the sixth grade(in the story).I would change some of the sentences,because in the story it doesn't have that much pictures.The author sets the mood like a person writing to a real person.The writing style is a bit crouched it to each other (a little).I think this is a good book I will give it 4 stars.

I like Dear Mr. Henshaw because it is funny. Our book, Dear Mr.Henshaw is sad. I think Dear Mr.Henshaw is descriptive.

I love Dear Mr. Henshaw because it is sad. I think it is sad because his parents are divorced. Our book is sad because his dad takes other kids for pizza and doesn't his own child for pizza. That is why I think Dear Mr. Henshaw is sad.

Dear Mr.Henshaw is funny. I think Dear Mr. Henshaw is funny because I think Leigh was funny when he writes your pooped writer Leigh Botts. Or when he wrote we licked it instead of we liked it. That's why I think Dear Mr. Henshaw is funny. Dear Mr. Henshaw is descriptive. When his dad and mom broke up and he did not see his dad a lot.I like the way he describes how his dad likes to drive a truck. That's why I think Dear Mr. Henshaw is descriptive.
