In reply to M Bhave. That is definitely a pattern I've noticed n this type of book - most are female characters. But My Name Is Sangoel or MY name is Saajin Singh would both be perfect for 4th grade!

Do you have any recommendations about a book for fourth graders that talks about boy’s name? Most of the name books are girls. I was thinking of a name that represents a boy.

It is so fascinating for me to follow your library journey now that your library and my library are one in the same. I love this list so much! While I’m not a library media specialist, I know this post will be invaluable to everyone who is. As a classroom teacher, you have left me with so many nuggets of wisdom as I weed my way through my own library- thank you!

In reply to Rhonda Hunt. Kids (& adults) of all ages still get nervous about the first day! I'd suggest My First Day or A Case of the Zaps as best for 4th.

I teach 4th grade and would like your opinion on which book would be best for this age group. Some of them still get first day jitters.
