Lisa, this a ingenious theme, and perfect or this age group. I love your early lit tips too - needless to say, I'm going to teal this one! Also love the 'Little Monsters' book it was a favourite of my own kids (is your's a reprint, or have you just looked after it very well)?
ReplyDeleteThanks for your nice comments Library Quine. You asked about "Little Monsters." My copy was purchased about 3 years ago, so it's relatively new. I have to say too that we keep a special reference collection of pop-up books just for storytime. The pop-up books that circulate don't last very long. Little fingers have lots of fun with the pop-ups.
