Lost Student? Just Lost in a Book!

So I'm working with a reader's workshop group today and suddenly realized that I was missing a student.  I counted.  Then I counted again.  One missing.  I wandered around the room.  No response from students. 

Well, all's well that ends well.  No students were lost, other than being lost in a book.  The "missing" student is the one furthest back, under the counter, behind the box and the book.  After I found  her and started breathing again, I heard her whisper, "Hey, Mr. W., this book is good."

Yeah, I kind of figured it was.


Update: At the end of today's class period I shared the picture with the whole group.  Another girl, not one of the pictured ones, said, "When did you take that picture?"  I told her about ten minutes ago.  "Today?  Really?  I didn't know you were taking pictures."

Apparently a few more were lost in their books!
