Spring has sprung and the staff of the Heartwood Hotel gear up for another busy season in this adorable third book in the Heartwood Hotel series! Join Mona, Ms. Carol, and all friends animal and human for this exciting 4 week book club! Spring has come to Fernwood Forest, and the Heartwood Hotel is all a-bustle. With Mr. Heartwood off on vacation, it’s up to Mona and the rest of the staff to keep everything running smoothly. When rumors buzz of a rival hotel, Gilles is determined to prove that the Heartwood is the very best with the splashiest Spring Splash the forest has ever seen. Guests check in from near and far to compete for the Cutest Egg, the Tiniest Talent, and the Best Blossom. Newcomer Henry is all too happy to help out, making Mona start to feel unsure of her place. Does the Heartwood really need her as much as she thought? But soon there’s more to worry about than whose egg has the sweetest speckles. Some decidedly uninvited guests have been drawn to the festivities. Can Mona find a way to bring everyone together in time to save them all from danger? Students will cheer for these kind, brave, beloved characters as they embark on their next adventure in Better Together, book 3 of the charmingly illustrated Heartwood Hotel series by Kallie George. This class is designed to be fully interactive and students are expected to be fully engaged. There is grace for the shy or introverted, of course, but if interacting with teacher and peers is uncomfortable for your student, this class is not a good fit for them. Please read chapters BEFORE class! Chapters 1-4 Chapters 5-8 Chapters 9-12 Chapters 13-16
