Reviews/Quotes
Teacher Quotes: "The Magical Day was a great addition to our study, the World of Work. It sparked great conversations, connections and motivated our students to be agents of change. I really liked the last page where students were able to use the diagram provided to retell the story. This resource is especially beneficial for struggling readers since the chart provides some support in retelling the main ideas of the story. I also really appreciated that the characters in the story showed varied and diverse members in our communities." "This book was a delightful read for anyone, but I would recommend this book to a reluctant reader. I especially liked page 44 which serves to summarize the story or could be used to help a student retell the story in their own words both orally or in writing.". ||| REVIEWS: Imagiread Blog Review "The Magical Day is an expository adventure waiting to happen. Donovan couldn’t be a more perfect character as he learns to appreciate the number 8 from a perspective he has never known before. Highly recommended, this book is considered a chapter book and is ideal for all ages. Five stars is simply not enough, see the perfect score on Amazon for yourself. After you do, snag a copy and add it to the Back-To-School with Tools box for fall reading!"
