We wanted to create a way where we could read a few books, learn about many titles and have fun doing it! The tournament style reading of the Mighty Smackdown means that in the first round each participant reads two books, discusses both in a blog post, selecting one book to move on to the next round. Teachers are asked to commit to one round but most, if not all, continue on. We will read to the end when we will have only one book left standing!

Where Andrew Finally Wins...
In the history of the Mighty Smackdown Andrew (an original participant) has been beaten down many a time for his opinions. Like those freaky clowns weighed down by sand who get punched and bounce back up, Andrew has been fighting the good fight for many years. One only has to scroll through the blog posts to see example after example of this.
Today, though, Andrew's blog post has broken the tie for me between Echo and Wolf by Wolf. I am voting with Andrew because I love a book that keeps popping into your head long after you've read it regardless of your initial thoughts. Both these books stand apart from The War That Saved My Life which is third for me. This summer I will be reading the sequel to Wolf by Wolf and thinking of all my Smackdown colleagues - especially Bozo er... I mean Andrew.
