Celebrated my birthday by reading one of my favorite books to some of my students. I also indulged them with a Donald Duck cartoon. I use the applecore routine to get their attention. I thought they would enjoy seeing where I learned it.
“and worked together, paw in paw“
I would use this book in my classroom to show students that they can do anything they put their mind too. People underestimate the kitten in the story. However, the kitten works hard even with the odds against her.
This book would be appropriate for kindergarten and 1st grade. This book is about a kitten who wants to prove to humans that there are more to animals than just cuteness. So, the kitten starts a construction company and builds a bridge
All the blurbs refer to this book as a thriller, and I was starting to wonder why when BAM! the plot went in a totally unforseen direction. Not many books make me talk out loud to the characters, but this one did. So wild and unexpected.
3✨ I like the idea of this series. Plus I like many of the characters. I still have an issue with her just calling her dog: “dog”. I didn‘t engage as much as I would like to with this book, but I do like the resolution that was made so there is closure. Overall, this book was a meh for me. #SeriesLove @Andrew65 @TheSpineView
In 1957 my grandpa built the house they are still living in now, at the age of 91. He and Grandma were talking yesterday about the adventure of building their own house and I asked Grandpa how he knew what to do. He replied, "I had a book!" and then pulled this one off the shelf. It's absolutely fascinating and full of details, blueprints, and careful instructions. However, I forgot to ask him if they came in under the $3500 mark.
