Spots In A Box is written and illustrated by Helen Ward. It is a fiction/poetry picture book. This book is about a guinea fowl that doesn‘t have any spots and he just wants to fit in. He orders many different spots in boxes but none of them are right. Finally he realizes that the best spots to chose are the ones that put a smile on your beak! I love the illustrations and the textures in this book. Kids would love it so much.

alexblanco There are no awards for this book but it is absolutely amazing! Since this book is a fun nonfiction/poetry book I think it would be good to use as a read aloud. #ucflae3414f19 A UDL strategy I would use would be to clarify vocabulary and symbols because there are words like “guinea” and “disappointed” that young kids probably don‘t know. 4y
alexblanco An ESOL strategy I would use would be to teach questioning for clarification. I would use this standard for the book “Ask and answer questions to help determine or clarify the meaning of words and phrases in a text.” https://www.cpalms.org/Public/PreviewStandard/Preview/5739 4y
ArianaG Excellent source and cool book! I would really be interested in reading this! 4y
DrSpalding This looks like a great book however I have not read it. Reading your summary makes me think that it is fantasy. Just remember that just because a text rhymes does not mean it is poetic. 4y
