[ISLMA-Share] Crazy Question

[Email list for the Illinois School Library Media Association]

Me to the Students: “Who can give me a description of an Historical Fiction Book?”

Student: “It’s a Book that is really, really, really funny?”

Me: “No, that would be “hysterical” fiction…”  J

"I want that book where somebody doesn't like somebody"

 

Do you remember anything else?

 

"You read it to us"

 

Processing, scanning my brain--aha!--is it this one? Ballet Cat: The totally secret secret

 

"Yes!!"

That one takes many questions and guesses until we find the answer. Another one that I get like it is

 

"I want the book you talked about that has a red cover on it"

1st-grade student: "I want to read a nonfiction book about the tooth fairy."

 

me: (Show her some picture books)

 

student: "No, I want the true facts and real pictures of the tooth fairy!"

 

me: "Hmmm..I think those are all checked out right now."

 

Lol!

All,

 

What was your craziest, most random or hardest Reader's Advisory question? And the answer if you found it. 

 

You know like the question: "I read a book with a blue cover that I liked, but I can't remember the title."

 

I'm collecting for a class.

 

Thanks for the help.
