Each literature teaching guide for the Hunger Games trilogy is aligned to the Common Core State Standards and includes strategic reading lessons that focus on both the individual volume and the series. There are over 50 separate strategies in the series for deeper understanding and meaning. In addition to lessons that focus on the standard elements of literature (plot, characterization, setting and mood, theme, diction, style, and narration), students are provided with the Choice Analysis Tool to help them gain a deep understanding of motivation in a complex and terrorized society. They are also offered the opportunity to use historical documents (e.g., the Bill of Rights and Declaration of Independence) as well as other works of literature and poetry to contextualize the trilogy. Each book also includes Writer’s Forums that guide students in writing while using the books in the series as a backdrop. A vocabulary feature in the final volume provides word study ideas for the entire series.

At first, the impressionable ten- year old thought he was imagining things. A flash of light. A brush of warm air across his chubby cheeks. The faint sound of something rushing across his room. As he prepares for the worse, a hornless unicorn by the name of Flash appears, urging Jeremy to help him retrieve his missing horn on the ominous Planet Org. “Me? Why would you want me? I’m just a kid." Jeremy argues. “You have incredible, latent magical powers,” the unicorn tells him. After much persuasion, Jeremy reluctantly consents, not realizing the enormous danger that lies ahead, as he encounters a myriad of strange and frightening characters along the way. Follow Jeremy and Flash as they make there way through many strange places like Moonhattan, ghoul swamp and illusion land, to name a few, meeting weird characters such as the wee people, the ice men and Thadeous the up side down face ghost. This book is a page turner. It's filled with chapter after chapter of exciting challenges which Jeremy and Flash must overcome. Will the challenges cause them to fail, or will they succeed in recovering Flash's horn? JEREMY JITTERS, IN SEARCH OF THE UNICORN’S HORN, has the strong narration and deliciously evil characters we enjoy in, The Wizard of Oz, the whimsical and quick-paced adventures of Alice In Wonderland, Goosebump's spooky surprises and the blossoming powers of a young magical boy in Harry Potter. The cliffhangers in every chapter of “Jeremy Jitters, and the hornless Unicorn” will keep your child wishing for more.
