Bink and Gollie, by Kate DiCamillo and Alison McGhee, have to be the most appealing characters in children's literature. While total opposites, they can teach our children so much about friendship. In the first book, Bink and Gollie, children read three short stories: Don't You Need a New Pair of Socks, P.S. I'll Be Back Soon, and Give a Fish a Home. With this novel study, your students will learn to answer concrete and inferential questions, summarize short stories, and write better paragraphs.
