Welcome to Litsy!

From an adult reader's perspective, this is just another opportunity to feast the eyes on Eric Carle's art, and I will happily take any opportunity to do so.

Seriously, how do you not fall in love with Eric Carle's command of colour?! 🐓

Rooster‘s Off to See the World is a great MF math book to add to you classroom library. While Rooster is planning on travelling the world, he meets several friends who are added, then subtracted, from his group. A great math activity (https://www.scholastic.com/teachers/lesson-plans/teaching-content/roosters-see-world-lesson-plan/) can be used to count and follow the timeline of the story, accounting for all of the animals joining the group.

“So, right then and there, he set out to see the world.“

I would use this book in my future classroom because of the creative illustrations and the book would engage children's sense of adventure.

This book is about a rooster wanting to travel. It is a picturebook because it is a book that truly appeals to children by exploring their imagination and adventure instead of it being written for adults. Also, the size of the book is appropriate for the content because it provides just enough pages about the rooster's adventures.
