Fantasy : Poppy by Avi

Filed under: Avi, Fantasy, Reader's Theater




I saw Avi do a Reader’s Theater piece with authors Sharon Creech (Love That Dog), Walter Dean Myers (Blues Journey), and Sarah Weeks (Regular Guy) at the conference I went to last week. You can see it at TeachingBooks.net on the Library Resources page (see me if you need the password). I was reminded of listening to Poppy on tape many years ago. Yes, on tape, not cd. I wasn’t a big fan of fantasy with talking animals at the time but I enjoyed the reader making Mr. Ocax and Ereth come alive. Have you been to the Dimwood Forest? Is there another book by Avi that you enjoyed?
