Bookish Peter

Peter reads and reads all the time.  The school has the kids take comprehension tests for their books and they get points.  Peter's supposed to get at least 6 points a month.  In October, I think he got 31 points.

So, he keeps all the books all over the place.  Once he finishes a book, he takes it with him to school so he can remember the title and take the test.  But he started getting a bit of a backlog.  The kids don't necessarily have time to take tests every day, especially if lots of the kids in class are waiting because there's only 1-2 computers per classroom.

Peter ended up with about five books in his backpack of tests to take.  Plus at least three books that he's in the process of reading.  Normally he only needs his lunch and his small homework bag in his backpack, but the other day this is what his backpack looked like from the overload of books.

At least he's pretty happy about it.  He loves reading all of them.  He tells his friends about all the books and is so excited when he gets another comprehension test done.  He asks to go to bed now because he can't wait to get back to his book for 1/2 hour or so before lights out.
