The pictures are stunning and do things that illustrations typically don’t do like. Too Tall Houses by Gianna Marino This is probably my favourite discovery of the week, I read this at our primary gathering to fifty plus little listeners and we were all delighted with it.

Posted in BLG Reads this week | Tagged Amy MacDonald, BLG Reads, fiction, great read alouds, picture books, Sarah Fox-Davies | 2 Replies Monday October 29th, 2012 He asked Wise Old Beaver.Old Beaver told him his tooth will grow back. I think if I was the beaver, I will pull my tooth.Īndrew: I like when he ask the porcupine. Kelvin: My favourite part was the mud house because it have protection. Student: “What if the beaver doesn’t have a reflection? Because if he doesn’t then he is a vampire.” She handled our eager and active listeners very well, taking all comments and questions in stride! My favourite? This was Deborah’s first book with us of the 2012/2013 year. Students enjoyed learning about the other animals in this story and joined in with parts where information repeated. Wise Old Beaver tells Little Beaver some interesting facts about beaver teeth and Little Beaver realizes that he might be young and foolish, but. “He doesn’t live in mud, he lives in sticks.”įinally Deborah was able to read on about the discussion Little Beaver had with Wise Old Beaver about why he could not be any of the other animals that he had visited. Wise Old Beaver lived in a mud house the text read. Well! This was quite alarming to the students! “ No way!” “ He has no spikes!” “ What!?” One student knew prcupine’s answer, “ Porcupines live in trees!” Poor Little Beaver was quite confused. So maybe he was a porcupine! Porcupines eat bark! But Muskrat explained that muskrats eat fish. Well Little Beaver knew that muskrats lived in mud houses, so maybe he was a muskrat. Woodchuck explained that he could not be a woodchuck because he lived in a mud house not a hole. Maybe he wasn’t a beaver at all! Perhaps he was a woodchuck! He went to find woodchuck to ask. He stared at his reflection for a long time and then it came to him. If it fell out, would he still be a beaver? The source of his worries? One of his big front teeth was loose. He won’t even come out to play with his friends. This informative little book was written by Amy MacDonald and illustrated by Sarah Fox-Davies. Deborah has returned as one of our beloved BLG readers! This week she shared Little Beaver and the Big Front Tooth with us.
