Loo wee self

Tremendous enjoyment with 3 yr old grand son.

A Must For Elementary Teachers and Parents who read to kids!

Lucyannie on

I thoroughly enjoyed the imagination brought to life by the author and illustrator! I teach many ELL students who just don't have the "words" for things mentioned in the story. Students will have the freedom to explore and grasp the plot and details either at their own pace, or guided be the read to me option. Beautiful way to start a discussion about values, families and friendship.

Shiver me timbers!
