I decided to turn it into a reader's theatre script and added a narrator to tell the story in the illustrations. They love reading it themselves and using expression and enthusiasm - especially the rabbit and bear parts but they just love that armadillo character too!Mrs.Betteridgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14738605295619025569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20429083.post-88928288846329911472012-01-08T08:28:24.666-05:002012-01-08T08:28:24.666-05:00I just got my copy in the mail!

I love a silly story and so do children. <br />As a literacy coach, I worry sometimes that all the wonderful activities surrounding read-alouds detract from the love/meaning of the book. We can use them to teach so many things, but we don't need crafty overkill. I try to keep my cutesy activity related to writing displays.SCTigerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04022505143719110130noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20429083.post-89284053763855997702011-11-23T01:38:16.644-05:002011-11-23T01:38:16.644-05:00I've had exactly the same experience! This boo...I've had exactly the same experience! This book just came alive once I started reading it aloud. Our 4th and 5th graders had such a great time with it!Mary Ann Scheuerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09592162867997740561noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20429083.post-85575263682223487492011-11-07T21:05:01.509-05:002011-11-07T21:05:01.509-05:00You've convinced me...I'm off to order it....You've convinced me...I'm off to order it.

(Thanks for the spoiler alert.)<br /><br />The most amusing part to me is the turtle. How on earth did George Bush get into this book?!?!?<br /><br />I am so Team Bear. Going off to get my Twibbon right now. My iPhone has been stolen for the SECOND TIME from my classroom (no recovery this time) and I would SO like to eat the rabbit who took it...Mary Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09078793537148794310noreply@blogger.com
