In my class, I will have the students create their very own " If You Give..." Book. They are responsible for coming up with a unique concept, write their short story and make illustrations to go along with their text. It will help them put into context proper reactions to certain actions.

The theme of the book is to allow children to understand that every action has a consequence. When you do one thing, it always leads to another.
The mouse asks the boy a series of questions all resulting from the generous act of the boy giving him a cookie. By the books completion, the plot comes full circle suggesting that the mouse will want yet another cookie and repeat the cycle again. Desires and wants are what fuels our everyday lives. Every action as a reaction and leads to the next.
