Our last class read aloud was Fake Mustache by Tom Angleberger. I asked my fourth graders to respond to the question: What did you LOVE about Fake Mustache?
Here are some of their responses:
*What I LOVE about Fake Mustache, is that it is a great adventure. You get to experience something out of the ordinary, something great. I think Fake Mustache is a glass of cold lemonade on a hot summer day, so refreshing.
*This book is full of humor. This is a llaugh-out-loud book, great for any child.
*What I liked about Fake Mustache is that it starts out with the ending.
*It was so fun to read and I loved when they switched parts. It is a very fun book to read and the things that happen you would never expect to happen.
*All the twist and turns, and how Mr.Sharp made the Jody O’ Rodeo voice, and how Lenny likes Jody and Jody likes him back it’s really funny too!!!!!!
*What I liked about Fake Mustache was all the drama and mystery in the book. I don’t read mystery books but that book can really make you laugh and sometimes you are so into the book that you may have a heart attack (not really). But still, it is a really good book to me. It has all the things that a book needs to be a good book. I especially like the whole fake mustache thing. That is funny I once had a fake mustache but that was 2 years ago and I don’t want to get into that. That would be a really good story to write, but anyways another reason why I like that book is because of the people in it like it tells about them. The book even has a little bit of romance and it has kissing and stuff wich a fourth grader would think is really funny and thats what I like about Fake Mustache.
*It was my type of reading, It was an adventure. It made you think and I LOVED IT!!!!
*I love Fake Mustache! I think it is the best book ever! I liked how they lead up to what happened at the end and like it fealt like real life. I know this sounds weird but I was sucked into that book everytime we read I felt like I was inside the book and it was just so exciting!!!!
*I loved it because Casper had a fake mustache and ran for president even though he was just a kid.
*I love Fake Mustache because of the adventures and surprising things that happen during it, and there is kind of romance that goes on in the story.
So many are talking about this book. Thanks for telling about it through your students, Colby. Very fun to hear!

I love some of their descriptions! This book will be the first one I pick up after my month of rereading after those recommendations. I might have to read it while I sip some lemonade. 🙂
