OUR SUMMER PET

Summer is here in our house. The end of the school year brought home a week old baby frog from the science lab.

Tadpole Rex by Kurt Cyrus
Harcourt Children's Books June 2008
Ages 3-9

This is a wonderful, humorous, rhyming book with bold playful illustrations. We observe a tadpole finding his voice amongst the dinosaurs. My nine year old son commented that every age would like it because it is "like a poem." It creatively combines fiction, science and rhythm, making a great read aloud. I loved it!
