Chris Van Allsburg

We recently read The Wreck of the Zephyr by Chris Van Allsburg in Reading.  All the students loved the story, so we are going to go deeper with Chris Van Allsburg.  We will be looking at different books he has written and watching a couple movies that are based on his books.  Then, we will compare and contrast the books and movies.  Here are some interesting places to find information about Chris Van Allsburg.
