I finally have my Beehive Book voting bulletin board up and it is so fun to track our progress reading and voting on Beehive Books. So far, our favorite picture book is When Pencil Met Eraser, with 317 votes! This week I am reading another Beehive Book nominee, The Box Turtle, by Vanessa Roeder. When little box turtle was born without a shell, his parents reassured him he was more than just a shell and they improvised with a brown box for his shell. But when other turtles make fun of him, box turtle abandons the shell his parents gave him and goes looking for another shell. He tries everything from a mail box to a hat box to a boom box! But nothing seems to fit. Will he ever find his best shell? Maybe it will take a best friend sharing his shell for box turtle to realize what he needs!
