At the end of the year, students chose their favorite story or a new story to publish in a hard cover book.  Parents volunteered to type the stories, and students glued the typed text into the pages of their books.  They then became the illustrator and published the book for all students in the classroom to read.

 

 

On the day of the Author Publication Celebration, students came prepared to read their classmates' books for most of the morning.  After reading each book, they signed the library card that was inserted in each student's book to let the author know that they had read it.
