This book introduces the student to write what they know from their experience or others they have observed. Students can see where ideas spring from, they can also learn where their classmates' ideas come from. The purpose for writing a letter, paragraph, or any piece of writing needs an idea that stems from what the student knows. Students can read each other's writing pieces and explain the idea of each other writing and how to enforce their ideas a bit more

A young boy wants to write a story, just like his big sister. But there's a problem, he tells her. Though he knows his letters, he doesn't know many words. "Every story starts with a single word and every word starts with a single letter," his sister explains patiently. "Why don't you start there, with a letter?" So the boy tries. He writes a letter. An easy letter. The letter I. And from that one skinny letter, the story grows, and the little boy discovers that all of us, including him, have what we need to write our own perfect story. This picture book from award-winning author Andrew Larsen playfully and imaginatively explores a young child's process of learning to express himself. It promotes the idea that stories are available for everyone to tell, whatever way we can, and will inspire pre-readers to try writing stories of their own. The lively, fun illustrations by Mike Lowery incorporate story panels with dialogue bubbles, adding visual texture. Also helpful, the boy's story is shown both as he actually writes it --- with just a few letters, some punctuation marks and typographical symbols --- and as he imagines it. Celebrating self-expression, self-discovery and imagination, this book would enhance an early language arts lesson on writing, particularly on the parts of a story. It beautifully highlights the exciting worlds that are opened up when children begin to read and write. In a sweet touch, the boy and his sister model a close and supportive sibling relationship.

This shows a journey of a young boy caught in a snowstorm and this uses various narrative techniques to follow along the story along with the character. Student can learn the flow of a story not only in poetry but in personal narratives can allows the audience to feel a part of the story. When the correct sentence is placed approximately it aids reader in following along. An activity that could be done is create comic books with student that have phrase boxes where students can practice flow.

Blizzard is based on John Rocco's childhood experience during the now infamous Blizzard of 1978, which brought fifty-three inches of snow to his town in Rhode Island. Told with a brief text and dynamic illustrations, t he book opens with a boy's excitement upon seeing the first snowflake fall outside his classroom window. It ends with the neighborhood's immense relief upon seeing the first snowplow break through on their street. In between the boy watches his familiar landscape transform into something alien, and readers watch him transform into a hero who puts the needs of others first. John uses an increasing amount of white space in his playful images, which include a gatefold spread of the boy's expedition to the store. This book about the wonder of a winter storm is as delicious as a mug of hot cocoa by the fire on a snowy day.Praise for Super Hair-o and the Barber of Doom"With a light, humorous touch, Rocco reveals that sometimes the Kryptonite is all in your head."-Publishers Weekly

PreS-Gr 2—Silly, funny, and visually appealing, this work will appeal to reluctant and avid readers. An unseen narrator rails against having to read a book containing everything unpleasant: words, sentences, and especially paragraphs. The snarky, mischievous tone and colorful cartoonlike word art illustrations enhance the satire. A variety of typefaces and jumbled comments keep things interesting. The narrator questions the need for extraneous, unpronounced letters in words, such as "doubt" and for long words, such as " infinitesimal" for such small things. While castigating the entire concept of reading a whole book, the narrator actually reads the whole book, and in the process offers information to those joining him. VERDICT A great classroom read-aloud bound to make listeners join in the fun.—Eva Elisabeth VonAncken, formerly at Trinity-Pawling Sch., Pawling, NY

Review

Praise for I Don't Want to Read This Book:“I Don't Want to Read This Book . . . is in the same family as books like The Book With No Pictures and The Serious Goose. A funny read-aloud, it breaks the fourth wall and engages young readers who are normally reluctant to pick up a book.” —People.com
“This satirical picture book . . . hilariously lists all the things he’d rather be doing than actually reading this book.” —
Variety
“Hilarious and thoughtful.” —
Parents Magazine
“Invites reluctant readers on a wry, irreverent adventure, with exuberant drawings and graphics, and lots of winks to kids who will wink back.” —
Romper
“Greenfield's irreverent text demolishes the fourth wall, and Lowery's peppy pencil and digital-media renderings of his words have a vibe reminiscent of a child's journal, with doodle-style drawings accenting his dynamic renditions of Greenfield's words. For avid and reluctant readers alike, this tongue-in-cheek, metafictive send-up of reading as a chore is delightfully unlikely to live up to its title.” —
Shelf Awareness
“Genuinely funny . . . A feisty manifesto and appealing visual experience.” —Kirkus Reviews

Humor in writing can give students room to show their voice. Stories like this one have a humorous plot used to engage the readers. The author uses a character that is plainly just silly. Students can identify their own silliness and write about a character that is an extension of themselves. This elevates writers, and unforgettable characters.

PreS-Gr 2—There's nothing like a day at the seashore. The gifts offered up by the restless ocean are always magical and stimulating—who knows what might be dreamt up and built. Of course, getting to the beach can often be a wearing process, and in this amusing story, a young girl decides that she must take her piano on her family's outing. Magnolia will not be deterred by the instrument's size or inappropriateness; she will bring it, and her busy mother finally consents by demanding that she "better not lose it!" Although initially this seems a far-fetched possibility, before long that is exactly what happens. How the piano ends up drifting out to sea and how Magnolia finally discovers the pleasure of finding shells make for a charming and hilarious story. Parsley highlights the joy, determination, and unreasonableness of young children and how parents can capitulate to the demands of their kids in order to achieve peace and provide them with a special experience. Her strong lines and bright colors are perfect for a book about the beach, but it is her expressive faces that will captivate readers. With just a few lines, Parsley conveys the many emotions of childhood, from excitement to frustration to contentment to dismay. VERDICT This humorous selection about willful and exuberant Magnolia is perfect for storytime or one-on-one sharing, especially when preparing for a trip to the beach.—Sally James, South Hillsborough Elementary School, CA

Review

Praise for If You Ever Want to Take a Piano to the Beach, Don't!:
"Magnolia's voice is wonderfully childlike... her facial expressions top all, perfectly capturing both her exuberance and her mood swings. A delightful demonstration of just one of many things not to take to the beach; the brainstorming possibilities are endless."―
Kirkus Reviews Praise for If You Ever Want to Bring an Alligator to School, Don't!: "Parsley's digitally created illustrations brim with energy and just-edgy-enough humor... and the well-chosen school-day details in both the artwork and text... deliver a steady stream of laughs."―Publishers Weekly
[It] revels in the rampage of the id-here in the form of a formidable and toothy crocodilian. Elise Parsley's jaunty second-person narration is matched by comically expressive and detailed digital artwork that seems to shout from the page."―
Wall Street Journal
"Children are likely to get a kick out of Magnolia's not-quite-contrite tone and the colorful chaos her giant pet creates."―
New York Times
"This is an engaging debut picture book [that] will appeal to a wide age range. Here's hoping for more adventures with Magnolia!"―
School Library Journal
