Description
These animal adventure books are a perfect compliment to the second grade Animal Fables block, the third grade Farming (and foraging) block, and the fourth grade Man & Animal Block. They can be used as read-aloud treat in the afternoons, evenings before bed, or weekends. They can also be used for “quiet time” when a fourth grade student wants or needs to read alone.
Young readers will enjoy discovering Old Mr. Toad’s destination in this delightful tale by master storyteller, Thornton W. Burgess. Set in the timeless fictional locale of the Green Forest and the Smiling Pool, this book transports today’s youngsters to the same world of gentle breezes and lovable creatures that has delighted generations of children before then. There, they’ll enjoy the warmth and whimsy of this tale while learning important lessons about nature, the environment, and the “lesser folk of fur and feathers.”
