Chicken Soup for Little Souls: the Goodness Gorillas… af Jack Canfield
reviewed
This is a fun book to read about imagination and adventure. Was one of Mx's first favorite books. I will always feel nostalgic with this book.
It's a cute story with a kid testing their mothers love with funny scenarios. This book has nothing really special to share with a class, I personally wouldn't add this to my classroom.
