One
day last week I read the children’s book called, ‘Hole in The Zoo.’
Hole
in the Zoo was written by Chloe and Mick Inkpen.
It’s
a delightful children’s picture book that tells the story of zoo animals that
come from the house at Number 2.
With
its wonderful storyline it’s a great book to introduce zoo animals to young
children.
It’s
also great to read together before visiting a zoo so they’d be able to recognize
the different animals instantly.
In
my opinion this book is a good teaching aid. As not only will they learn the
different days of the week, but they’ll also learn about the different types of
animals that live in a zoo.
Although
there are no numerical numbers to recognize, you could still interact with your
child by guessing how many animals have come from the house at Number 2, before
counting them together.
So, why
not read the book or with parental guidance or permission watch the story on
YouTube, then you can tell me what you think.
It’s
a great book for young children very educational.
Remember,
reading and learning together is fun.

One
day last week I read the children’s book called, ‘Give Me Back My Dad.’
This
children’s book was written by Robert Munsch and illustrated by Michael Martchenko.
It’s
a delightful children’s picture book that tells the story of a young girl named
Cheryl and her first experience at ice fishing.
When
Cheryl and her dad went ice fishing, they didn’t know how their day would turn out.
However,
they didn’t expect to be outwitted by a fish which is what happened in this
case, for when a huge smart fish caught Cheryl with a candy bar it wouldn’t let
her go.
Now
that the huge fish had her captive under the ice how was her father going to
get her back?
The
other problem was that these smart fish liked to trick people with goodies in
order to catch them.
So,
will her father end up under the ice too or will they go home to a fish supper?
What
do you think?
To
find out what happened next, why not read the book or with parental guidance or
permission watch the story on YouTube, then you can tell me what you think.

I read
the children’s book called, ‘Fred,’ the other day.
This
children’s book was written by Mick and Chloe Inkpen.
It’s
a delightful children’s picture book that tells the tale of a little dog named
Fred.
Fred
can sit and stay and catch a ball all day but when his owners call out ‘Fred,’
he doesn’t understand what a Fred is.
What
does it mean?
What
is a Fred?
He
understands sit and stay but not a Fred!
Will
he think it’s another word for play, sit or stay or will he work out that it’s
his actual name.
It’s
a wonderful book with an adorable ending that children will love.
So,
why not read the book or with parental guidance or permission watch the story
on YouTube, then you can tell me what you think.

I read
the children’s book called, ‘The Sandcastle Contest,’ the other afternoon.
This
children’s book was written by Robert Munsch and is beautifully illustrated by Michael
Martchenko.
It’s
a delightful children’s picture book that tells the tale of a young boy called
Matthew and a sandcastle contest.
When
Mathew went on a camping trip with his family their first stop just happened to
be close to the beach.
Down
on the beach he saw many people making statues and castles out of sand for a
contest.
Excited
he decided to enter.
Personally,
I think he only entered to try and win the prize, a bathtub full of ice cream,
yummy.
Using
all his skills he created a house, a sand house, a house made out of sand.
Wow,
how cool is that.
But with
the judges believing it to be a real house how will he ever convince them that
it’s really made of sand!
To
find out what happened next to Matthews sand house, why not read the book or with
parental guidance or permission watch the story on YouTube, then you can tell
me what you think.
It’s
a great book for young children that encourages imagination and creativity especially
when making sand castles.

I read
the children’s book called, ‘Swamp Water,’ the other day.
This children’s book was written by Robert Munsch and is
beautifully illustrated by Michael Martchenko.
It’s
a delightful children’s picture book that tells the tale of a young girl named
Victoria and a very special lunch.
Victoria’s
grandmother wanted to take her somewhere different for a special lunch from their
usual eateries, where they neither sold hamburgers, chicken fingers or tacos.
So,
when Victoria’s grandmother took her to a fancy restaurant it wasn’t what she’d
expected.
When
Victoria asked the waiter for a peanut butter and jelly sandwich and a glass of
swamp water, she learns that neither were on the menu. This didn’t go down too well.
So,
what do you think Victoria did next?
Demand
a peanut butter and jelly sandwich and a glass of swamp water or try something different
from the menu?
To
find out what Victoria did next, why not read the book or with parental guidance
or permission watch the story on YouTube, then you can tell me what you think.
It’s
a great book for young children, it’s amusing with a great ending especially if
you like ducks.

I read
the children’s book called, ‘Put Me in a Book.’
This
children’s book was written by Robert Munsch and illustrated by Michael
Martchenko.
It’s
a delightful children’s picture book that tells the unusual tale of how a young
girl called Hailey ended up in a book.
On a
school outing at a park Hailey saw an author writing a book. He appeared to be
having a little trouble finishing it.
When
Hailey learned that he wanted a kid to feature inside the book, she asked if
she could be in the book, so the writer happily picked her up, flattened her and
stuck her like a page in the book, then the teacher took her back to school.
Unfortunately,
this wasn’t how Hailey wanted to be put in a book, she expected to be written
in, not physically put in the book.
Now
stuck inside how could she ever escape?
Could
her school friends find a way to get her out of the book, or would she remain
inside the book forever?
To
find out what happened next, why not read the book or with parental guidance or
permission watch the story on YouTube, then you can tell me what you think.
It’s
a funny book with a great ending that young children would like. It encourages imagination and creativity.
