Dear Mr. Henshaw

Dear Mr. Henshaw

By: Beverly Cleary
Realistic Fiction

This book is about a little boy who is struggling with his life at home and at school. His teacher requires each student to write to their favorite author and Leigh Botts writes to Mr. Henshaw but then becomes pen pals with him. It comforts Leigh to have someone to talk to and vent.

I used technology to record a book talk with a few students who really enjoyed this book.
