These books were written by the students in Room 101. The text was based on the book, "Brown Bear, Brown Bear What Do You See?" (see the September 17 post). Instead of pictures of animals, there are photographs of the children. This book, with easy, predictable text is perfect for the students to read or "pretend read". This is a wonderful way for all the students to feel good about reading a book on their own (as well as learning the names of the students in the class).
This is a Dr. Seuss classic! The combination of rhyming words and crazy creatures never fails to captivate the attention of the children. This book was a favourite of my own children, and so I have probably read this book at least 100 times. If you are looking for stories to help children develop phonemic awareness (awareness of the individual sounds in words), Dr. Seuss books are some of the best.
Ah, the little red fish...where does it go? This is a wonderfully original book, with beautifully crafted illustrations. JeJe brings his pet fish to the library and the fish escapes to have an adventure inside a book. Some pages are without text and allow for some deep discussions about what is happening in the story.
This book is another classic. I read this book when I was a child. The little boy wishes for duck feet (and other changes) and ultimately realizes that he is happiest just the way he is. This was a good story to talk to the class about what the boy learned in the story.

A crazy story that features a crabby pig who is trying to write a book and constantly asks the reader to stop bothering him so he can get back to work. The children always enjoy the funny illustrations and the odd feeling that we are "breaking the rules" by opening the book and turning the pages even though the pig keeps asking us not to...
