book study with a new look

I bought this sketch book for our book study unit,

it has very thick covers (both front & back)

and the papers in it are thick too,

ideal to paste a lot of "things" on them.

This is the book we've just finished reading.

Thimble Summer

Little Pear

after a heavy-hearted book such as "Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry",

.
we read "Little Pear" (which we used 2 years ago but Xinpei couldn't recall what's it about) to brighten up,

.
I was planning 2 chapters a day but.... XP gobbled up the whole book in 30 minutes

.

.

Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry

actually was thinking of continue with "LTCBU" after "ROTHMC",

but I found the books too sad to read,

maybe will keep "LTCBU" for another few years

book study
