A Delightful Read!
This is our first experience with this author and this series and I must say we are quite pleased with what we read here. In The Pirates Plot we meet Mr. Taylor (a new teacher) and his class...specifically Leo the student who gets to choose the five special items for the tale being told here. The entire premise of Taylor-Made Tales is that this new teacher allows one student at a time to pick five items and he then tells a story that must include those five items! Leo loves soccer but is not feeling happy with how the new coach handles the practices so blurts out in class that he wants to quit the soccer team (a very big decision for him).

When hes chosen to pick the items Leo is sure that he can stump Mr. Taylor...he chooses a pirate ship a huge hunk of cheese a six toed cat a brass key and a mop. To his surprise Mr. Taylor begins to weave an excellent tale about Tom a ten year old boy who wants something more than daily routines and roast on Sunday...a boy who long :2010-09-16 00:33:10

love it!
Im a second grade teacher with 4 boys of my own at home. These "tales" are stories within a story. The author really captures teachers ability to engage their students in storytelling. You must give these stories a try! Normally I do not care for "series" but these are great. Im ordering a set to read with my students in small group guided reading. :2010-09-16 00:33:10

The Adventure
Pirates Plot by Ellen Miles is a story about a boy named Leo. He was thinking of quitting soccer because his new coach was teaching drills that Leo found boring. Even during class Leo kept thinking about quitting soccer. So his teacher Mr. Taylor decided to help him out with the decision. So Mr. Taylor asked Leo to choose five items. Leo chose: a brass key a six toed cat a hunk of cheese a mop and a pirate ship. Mr. Taylor started his storytelling. He included the five items in his plot. He told a story about a young stowaway named Tom.
After Mr. Taylor ends his story Leo gets a better idea that helps him decide what to do next.

This book was amazing because it taught me a big lesson and it might also teach you a lesson if you read it. I recommend this book for first and second graders.
