Nate the Great

by: Marjorie Weinman Sharmat

 

 

Why we liked this book: This is a fun beginning chapter book for kids.  The mysteries are fun and simple and had my kids guessing the whole time we were reading.  My son who is entering first grade this fall especially loved it!  There is a whole series of these and I am sure we will feautre another "Nate the Great" book.

 Activity: From reading this first Nate the Great book we found out that Nate the Great LOVES pancakes.  So...my kids wanted to have a pancake dinner for our activity.  Simple enough right?  There are also activity ideas in the back of this book!

 

Here is a pancake recipe we used but you can do whatever you want!  Strawberries and chocolate chips are always nice to add!
