[ISLMA-Share] Chapter books for 1-3

[Email list for the Illinois School Library Media Association]

The Junior Library Guild is a good resource. *Raymie Nightingale* by Kate
DiCamillo would be a great addition. Actually,  she has several books that
would be good for that age range.  How about *The One and Only Ivan, *or*
Crenshaw *by Katherine Applegate.

*Peace,*

*I am listening to: ​​ Hamilton The Revolution by Lin-Manuel Miranda*
