It's time for another episode of 3 in 3 (and tea) with Debbie Ridpath Ohi and me! We feature 3 children’s books by Canadian authors and/or illustrators and share a few tips and resources for using them in the classroom.
In Episode 4, we explore a picture book and a middle grade novel about girls taking on new challenges, and a bonus middle grade novel with a touch of bling! (If you want to catch up on other episodes, you can find them on Debbie's 3 in 3 playlist -- or click here: Episode 1, Episode 2, Episode 3).
