Games - for Books!

Hey, I know you like playing games. But there are some sites that just aren't appropriate for school. Here's a site that allows you to impress your teachers and parents by playing games that are related to books that you've read.....or maybe even would like to read.

I tried a few myself, and they're really easy to get the hang of. Let me know what you think! Click here: http://www.scholastic.com/kids/stacks/games/

A few of my favorites were Holes and Keys to the Kingdom. Happy gaming!
