Little Rabbit Foo Foo


Genre: Poetry
Title: Little Rabbit Foo Foo
Author: Michael Rosen
Illustrator: Arthur Robins
Awards: N/A
Age group: 3-6 years old

Summary: A fairy visits Little Rabbit Foo Foo because he is being mean to others. The fairy gives him three chances to change, but he does not listen. Therefore, she turns Little Rabbit Foo Foo into a goon. 

Evaluation: This would be a fun book to not only read but to sing chorally as a class. I would create some hand motions for the students to do as we read and sang the song. I think this book could be a good brain break especially if I incorporated some movements with the song. Also, I can use the book to teach students that we should be kind to others and the importance of listening when told to do something the first time.

The Wheels on the Bus

  Title: The Wheels on the Bus Genre: Poetry Author &  Illustrato r : Annie Kubler Awards: N/A Age Group: 1-4 years old Summary: The author shows us the life of being a bus driver. We get to see different people get on and off the bus. In addition, we get to learn about the different parts of the bus and how the people on the bus act. At the very end, everyone gets off the bus because they arrived at their destination where they are having a party. Evaluation: I would use this book when doing a lesson on transportation. The students will learn parts of cars by reading this book and singing along. I would also use the illustrations to get students to predict where they think the people on the bus are going.
