Has your dinner ever ran away from your plate? Ours did today when we read “The Runaway Dinner.” For dessert we helped Ms. Kim bake a cake and read “Bunny Cakes.” This book was chosen because it is part of JumpStarts Read For the Record 2014. Celebrate literacy and Pledge to read today! http://www.jstart.org/campaigns/read-bunny-cakes-online
