Another #underthedustcover with illustrated creators on the fly - these people look like fun.
pickAnother book I forgot to review! This was my last book finished for 2023. I learned a lot and enjoyed making connections to other books I‘d read in the field.
pickAme Dyckman is on my list of authors I'd like to hang out with. Her books are so funny. Parents may enjoy the humor more than the kids though. It was fun hearing the kids react to the chair tipping or the booger page. Not so much fun having them interrupt the flow of the read with their pronunciation of dinosaur name corrections. Everyone stumbled when they read aloud, even me.
Blurb:
I would use this book to start a conversation on how to stay safe in and out of the classroom. Also, this book can be used to start thinking about classroom rules for the year.
pickReview:
This book won a Caldecott medal in 1996. It is about a police officer who teaches students at schools about what to do to be safe. However, no one ever listens to him until he brings along Gloria, the police dog. Now, everyone listens and there has not been an accident since.
“Officer Buckle thought of his best safety tip yet… ALWAYS STICK WITH YOUR BUDDY!l
pickOfficer Buckle and Gloria is an absolutely adorable book! It is a perfect book for school settings and even discussing safety in schools
