This book is one of my favorites! Excellent illustrations and easy to read and this can teach students responsibility, care of an animal and extinction.

He goes out to the market, out to the farmer, ad around town while Albuquerque tries and figures out what he's going to make. The farmer decided not to eat his best friend Albuquerque  and instead makes egg foo yong for the both of them.

This book is an easy to read poem and good for a laugh. A good story put into a poetry rhyme. Great use of animals and celebrating holidays such as Thanksgiving, different food to wat such as egg foo yong.

Today I will Fly!

Today I want to Fly! by Mo Williams is about a Piggie who wants to fly and is determined, but Piggies friend Gerald the elephant says that Piggie can't fly. So Piggie tries everything to make him/her fly: Jumping off Gerld, being scared, etc.

I think that this book is good for introduction to early learning of animals, determination, and the impossible. A great book to teach children that they can achieve what they want if they jut keep on trying. The illustrations are simple and easy for children to understand what is going just by looking at the pictures. I highly recommend this book.
