In this imaginative interpretation of the nursery rhyme “The House That Jack Built,” young Jack builds an amazing fort in the middle of the living room, using the chairs, blankets, and other objects on hand. Unfortunately, those objects belong to his family members, so when they want their things back—there goes the walls and roof! Jack struggles to keep his fortress going as it crumbles piece by piece. Finally, Grandma saves the day with her quilts for a sweet, satisfying ending filled with family fun. Boni Ashburn’s text is brought to life by acclaimed illustrator Brett Helquist, whose lively style takes this tale beyond the living room and into the world of adventure.

Jack: tough, cocky, and irreverent. Chase: boy-next-door, charming, and fun. Sawyer: dark, tall, and brooding. They couldn't be more different, but they have something big in common: They're all trying to do right by the kids they're raising alone. And it's going pretty well... until trouble moves in... It's all fun and games until you and the woman you should NEVER fall for are under one roof. DO OVER When Maddie, the mother of my son, shows up on my doorstep in tears, I have zero defenses. I can’t say no to my kid. Or his mom. Never have been able to. That’s how I make two big impulsive decisions: giving Maddie a bed to sleep in… and climbing in with her. Now I’ve got my kid and his mom living under my too-small roof, and I can’t put the attraction genie back in the bottle. HEAD OVER HEELS I need a fill-in nanny, stat. Liv needs a place to live and a job. We’re best friends and polar opposites—with a huge helping of new and sizzling chemistry. Living under one roof... what could go wrong? SLEEPOVER She’s my new next-door neighbor. My son’s best friend’s mom. And… whoops, my most recent one-night stand. We both know a repeat would be a terrible idea, given the close quarters and our recent histories. But are things too close for comfort? Or not close enough? Three full-length, standalone, interconnected, steamy, small-town contemporary romantic comedies, chock full of friends-to-lovers, opposites attract, grumpy-sunshine, and second chance goodness.

Tackling nearly every aspect of the English Language Arts Standards and the measures they employ, it offers a thorough plan for engaging elementary school students with literature. It explores the benefits and teaching principles behind CCSS, and explains how to apply them to literature. Along with the strengths it has in connection to CCSS, you will learn about the history of children's literature and what both fiction and nonfiction bring to the classroom. You will find plenty of practical applications of the CCSS, including book lists and lesson ideas, along with thorough examples. There is also a wealth of information on the kinds of readers you will encounter and explanations of how to meet their needs. A final section focuses on creating a curriculum, connecting the theory throughout the book with concrete lessons plans and units that cover the main CCSS skill sets.
