Danny's First Snow af Leonid Gore
This is a cute story of a young rabbit named Danny who goes out to play in the snow for the very first time. He is a very imaginative bunny and see all different types of animals in the snow to play with and also sees some not so friendly animals. Overall, his first experience with snow was a very good one and he cant wait to out to play again. The illustrations in this book were very unique they had a fuzzy/dot look to it which points out the snow. A writing prompt that may go with this story is to ask them how their first snow experience and if they never experienced snow what do you think it would be like?… (mere)
This is a cute children's book. It will teach young readers about what different things animals eat. Many animals like to eat some of the same things. It also will teach about the food chain because some animals eat other animals/living things. The bright bold illustrations do great at keeping the readers attention and some of the pages are shaped like food items. Very fun book to share to readers that are just learning about animals and types of foods they eat.
Cute animal book about what each animal eats. However, this is yet again another book that says cats drink milk, NOOOOO!
A cute story of animals attempting to find uses for a found book, until a child shows them by reading it aloud. I would use it to highlight features of print and to discuss appropriate use of classroom tools.
