Welcome to Litsy!

This book would be so fun for students because they need to learn why its not good to interrupt. The students can also relate to the book because a lot of kids love bedtime stories.

“It‘s bedtime for the little red chicken and Papa is going to read her a story. ‘You‘re not going to interrupt the story tonight, are you?‘ asks Papa. ‘Oh no, Papa. I‘ll be good,‘ says the little Red Chicken.”

This hilarious book is so fun for students of all ages. It is a funny book that you could even spice up with a honking chicken dog toy. The students think its hilarious but also learn the frustration of interrupting others.

“She was about to answer him when- OUT JUMPED A LITTLE RED CHICKEN. AND SHE SAID 'DON'T TALKTO STRANGERS!'“

I think this is an excellent book to read because of the moral of the story. We all have students that interrupt you not on purpose because they are excited and they are wanting to hear more of the story. This book is great for teaching manners of how to be patient.

Interrupting Chicken by David Ezra Stein was a picture book published in 2010. The father (a rooster) tries to put a misbehaving youngster (a chick) to bed by telling her a favorite fairy tale. Papa cautions Chicken not to interrupt the narrative, but the little red chicken disregards his warning. The art of the book helps the readers understand the story by using colors, the chick pops off the page and is the center of the reader's attention.

“Don‘t go in! She‘s a witch!”
“So Hansel and Gretel didn‘t. The end!”

I love how they made child like images

“Out jumped a little red chicken, and she said, 'Don't talk to strangers!'“ This was the second story that the chicken interrupted and I just think it is funny that she jumps in with the theme of the story to end it.

This book would be perfect for any classroom- the stories that her papa begins to read her are all classic tales that almost every student will have heard which allows for students to connect with it. It is a silly book that will bring laughter to the classroom and can even be used if you have some students who embody the interrupting chicken.

Blurb: This book is perfect for children that have experience with traditional stories like Red Riding Hood and the Three Little Pigs, because they are incorporated in this story
Quote: “You did it again. You interrupted two stories, and you're not even sleepy“

(As the father is reading Hansel and Gretel) “Out popped a little red chicken, and she said “Don't go in! She's a witch!““ This is a cute quote that shows how invested into the story the little chicken is.

It's important to know your audience before reading this book. As a teacher, you should make sure your kids have been exposed to the classic stories in this book so they can understand the humor.

Interrupting Chicken by David Ezra Stein, 2010. Caldecott Honor Award. This is a very humorous and repetitive tale about a chicken who jumps into his bed-time stories and spoils the ending for those characters. The illustrations are a huge aid into understanding the story because you can actually see the contrast in colors between the chicken and the stories, showing they are in different worlds. The illustrations are also beautifully colored.

I liked when his dad fell asleep and he goes “papa?” I thought it was cute that the story reversed at the end

This would be good for kindergarten through third grade I think becuase they could have a lot of fun making predictions about what‘s gonna happen

This is a traditional literature book. We read it in class and it was cool that it included other fairytales in it
