On our book shelf to the right is our current read aloud story. Our hero is Nate Twitchell, who has discovered an unusual, enormous egg in his family's henhouse. After a summer of caring for the egg it finally "hatches out," and Nate and his family and the paleontologist, (visiting tiny Freedom, New Hampshire for summer vacation), have discovered a baby triceratops! Nate and Dr. Ziemer are recording data to monitor its growth - just as we are recording the growth and changes of our mealworms. (Do you know we have three in the pupa stage?) We are making connections with Nate and wondering how the family will handle the crowds of visitors when the news gets out to the world.
