Good Morning Everyone!!! What a wonderful day for reading inside and out!

The older reading included two stories; The Unbeatable Bread, by Ly Littlefield Hoopes and Olson's Meat Pies, by Peter Cohen and Olof Landstrom. Both great books, with wonderful illustrations, for a little older child. My younger reading group was outside today and I read the following: George's Store by Frank Asch, Pig Pig Gets a Job by David McPhail, The Storekeeper by Tracey Campbell Pearson, Olson's Meat Pies by Peter Cohen and Olof Landstrom, and The Pottery Place by Gail Gibbons.

Hi Everyone! We had a great storytime today. Our group has storytime outdoors as it is a bag-lunch affair. What's better than stories outside on a gorgeous summer day? We read the following: Jungle Drums by Graeme Base; 2 books of Aesop's Fables. Looking forward to next week, as my preschoolers are awesome!
