Brown, Craig. (1993) In the Spring. Greenwillow.
|
Spring on the farm results in new life: the pig
has piglets, the cat has kittens, the cow has a
calf, and so on -- then the farmer's wife has twins.
-
Create your own "In the Spring" book focusing on animals in
another setting, for example, the zoo.
Include a giraffe, elephant, and culminate
with the zookeeper's wife.
- Read I Love You, Mouse by John Graham
(Harcourt, 1976) -- a book of rhymes
including baby animals and their mothers.
- If you are in the Tama, Iowa area schedule a stop at
the Louise and Lucille Hink Tama Public Library in downtown Tama to
view the original illustrations for In the Spring.
