During one of my undergrad classes, my professor would have raffles for us students. It was really incentive to come to class on time ;) Normally, I never win such raffles, but the book genie was on my side and I won "Animals Should Definitely Not Wear Clothing" by Judi Barrett and Illustrated by Ron Barrett. Boy oh boy am I glad I was on time for that class.
"Animals Should Definitely Not Wear Clothing" is an absolutely hilarious picture book about... well..why animals shouldn't wear clothes!
Last year, during my student teaching semester, I taught my 4th graders about making an inference and I used this book as part of my lesson. Not only did my students understand making an inference, but they absolutely loved the book and adored the pictures!
Moms: Like I've mentioned in previous posts, I love short books for bed time. This is one of them! Perfect to put the little ones down with :)
Barnes and Noble have it at around $7 for paperback and Amazon has it at anywhere from $5 used in "Good" condition.
Now, go and READ!!!
P.S. as I was researching the prices for y'all, I saw that Judi and Ron Barrett have another book entitled "Lots More Animals Should Definitely Not Wear Clothing". I haven't read this one, but I would assume that it is just as adorable as this first one. If anyone has read it comment below and tell us if it just as good :)
