While I was sitting in the media center at an elementary school this morning, the media specialist was doing a read aloud (love those by the way) and I head students laughing and laughing and laughing!
So of course I wanted to find out what was going on.
Have you ever read Interrupting Chicken by David Ezra Stein?
If you had, then you would understand all the laughter that I heard this morning! If you have or have not read the book, I bet you will like this book trailer ….
David Ezra Stein’s picture book Interrupting Chicken won a 2011 Caldecott Honor and is a New York Times bestseller.
I found all kinds of fun stuff to go along with this book and its awesome author!
- Anita Silvey posts a different book on her Children’s Book-A-Day Almanac and Interrupting Chicken was her choice one day!
- There are some lessons and activities related to this book from The Best Children’s Booksite.
Want to know more about the author?
Check out his website: http://www.davidezra.com/
On his site, you can find all sorts of information about him, his friends, and his books …. even how one of the books (Pouch) was made!
For those who are feeling inspired to create their own book … there are even directions and illustrations!
***********************************************
We wonder if you can figure out who is the publisher of this book?
The publisher has a twitter page that shares lots of great information about this book and many others! They even have their own website!
We told you about a book we read, so we wonder what is a book you have read recently and how can we find out more information about it?
