Banana by ed vere5/22/2023 ![]() And that was just as great for them, too. Which left me showing the rest of the story and writing the letters for them to call out. Only had about 3 or 4 kids want to participate. Then they wrote the first letter of that word on the iPad, which was connected to our big screen for everyone to see. I had the kids tell me what was going on and how a certain monkey was feeling. I had a small crowd, so it worked really well that I wasn't having to stretch our the story. And it's always nice that so many kids love bananas at that age.ĩ/13/17 Used this as Literacy Moment in "Load of Laughs" theme. The humor was just right and the length was great, too. But my groups are so large now, it might be harder for me to do so.ĩ/9/13: This was perfect for my Movement storytime group. Ed Vere (Author, Illustrator) Ed Vere is an award-winning and New York Times bestselling writer and illustrator of picture books, including How To Be a Lion - winner of Oscar's Book Prize - and Max the Brave which was named one of The Sunday Times's '100 Modern Children's Classics'. In a lap-read, it would be perfect considering it is a great way to teach one about saying "please." Maybe in a smaller storytime group I could get this to work because of the timing and flow. I think this book would be too young for toddlers to get in a storytime setting. Then again, the Finn book worked all right. ![]() But I'm not sure how comfortable I am with facially acting out a tantrum-especially with an age that is subject to them. I think this would be a fun read-aloud, because it would be enjoyable to say banana all those ways. A lot conveyed in the illustrations-and so many ways to say "banana." It makes me think of all the ways one can say Wall-E or Eve (or Ev-a!). ![]()
