My favorite part of teaching are the read alouds! And I’ve come across some GOOD ONES.
When something hard happens to you and you just need a listening ear 🥹
The Rabbit Listened (Hardcover)
The first time I read this was aloud to a class and we all cried at the ending. It’s SO GOOD.
After the Fall (How Humpty Dumpty Got Back Up Again) - by Dan Santat (Hardcover)
My whole classroom is Mo Willem’s themed with Piggie and Elephant and the Pigeon. I won’t apologize for it.
Pigeon Has To Go To School! - By Mo Willems ( Hardcover )
I love tacos too!
Dragons Love Tacos (Hardcover) by Adam Rubin and Daniel Salmieri
This has been a classroom favorite since 2016!
The Book With No Pictures - By B.J. Novak ( Hardcover )
A story told only with pictures and no words, it’s about making friends and not letting bullies win. It’s so precious.

A book about learning how to work together and synergize!
