Another favorite. One of the most memorable books form my childhood - perhaps because I could really relate with Alexander and nothing going how he wanted it to. This book is engaging for younger kids and is appropriate for use in 1-3rd grade classrooms. It really teaches a valuable lesson - you can't always get what you want... EVEN IF YOU MOVE TO AUSTRALIA. This book can spark a wonderful discussion in the classroom, for instance "how could Alexander have reacted differently to the problems presented during his day?"
