Reading is one of the most cherished activities in the classroom, and Mega Bat (a book series by Anna Humphrey) became a highlight of the day in an elementary classroom. As students immersed themselves in this humorous and adventurous series, quiet reading time was often accompanied by busts of laughter, which filled the room with joy.
The playful nature of the book sparked creativity and imagination, inspiring students to think beyond the pages. In their book reports, they eagerly shared their favourite moments and discussed alternate endings, demonstrating critical thinking skills and how deeply involved they were with the book.
Their shared experience with Mega Bat highlighted the magic of reading — how a good book can bring joy, spark discussion, and create connections with both the story and each other.
