review 1: Piggie and Gerald are so excited to play outside until all of the sudden, it starts to rain. Poor Piggie is not happy about the rain and doesn't know how "anyone can play outside with all this rain!?!" But with the unintentional help of two little worms, Piggie and Gerald get an idea and everything seems right again. The major theme of this book is friendship. I think this book would be a great tool to incorporate into a lesson to young elementary students about the importance of friendship and generosity. Gerald willingly helps Piggie have a fun day outside without Piggie even needing to ask. Teaching young students about being the importance of being generous and not expecting anything in return, as well as the importance of friendship is an important life lesson that sh... moreould be taught at a young age.
review 2: Willems, Mo. (2008). Are You Ready to Play Outside? New York: Hyperion Books For Children. Geisel Award Choice This book so so cute! It is about an elephant and a pig who want to play outside. When it starts to rain the pig is not happy, but he soon realizes that playing in the rain is fun. As soon as he starts to have fun, the rain stops, but the elephant makes rain for the pig with his trunk. This story is great for teaching kids about making the best of every situation. This story is geared toward kindergarten/ First grade. I would use it in a reading group to work with students are reading fluency. less
