When I want to know which books are popular with my students right now, I look at their desks. The most sought after book never is on the shelf for long AT ALL, and is passed around like a plate of cookies with every one taking a share for themselves.
Here are two books that fourth graders are reading right now:

| I read the ARC this summer. The book is available in stores now. |
Infinity Ring by James Dashner
Publication Date: 8/28/12
Published by: Scholastic, Inc.
Pages: 192
The main characters in this book live in a dangerous America where natural disasters are common, and they are on a mission! There's time travel, adventure, history and a lot of excitement mixed in this book, and it grabs readers from the beginning. It's the first in a series written by multiple authors, and my readers can't wait for the 2nd one coming out in November.

Squish 4: Captain Disaster by Jennifer L. Holm & Matt Holm
Publication Date: 8/25/12
Published by: Random House Children's Books
Pages: 96
My students cannot get enough of this graphic novel series. Squish is an amoeba in grade school who is trying hard to make it through! He has friends, faces challenges, and his dad gives him advice along the way. In this installment, his soccer team isn't doing so well! There's lots of action and fun in this book, and my students already want the next one!
