The classic story about searching for somewhere to belong, from four-time Caldecott honor winner Leo Lionni.
Elephants are gray. Pigs are pink. Only the chameleon has no color of his own. He is purple like the heather, yellow like a lemon, even black and orange striped like a tiger! Then one day a chameleon has an idea to remain one color forever by staying on the greenest leaf he can find. But in the autumn, the leaf changes from green to yellow to red . . . and so does the chameleon. When another chameleon suggests they travel together, he learns that companionship is more important than having a color of his own. No matter where he goes with his new friend, they will always be alike.

I’m going to begin with a quote from the New York Times as quoted at the back of my copy of Alexander and the Wind-up Mouse:
If the picture book is a new visual art form in our time, Leo Lionni is certain to be judged a master of the genre. Selma Lanes
Alexander the Wind-up Mouse was first published in 1969 and this classic book is still in print. One of our large Sydney book chain stores have a book sale this month with all of their children’s books offered for a discount. When I spied Alexander the Wind-up mouse for just $4 I knew I had to buy this very special book.
Alexander is living under a human house. One day he meets another mouse. Could this be a friend? Perhaps but this new mouse is a Wind-up mouse. His name is Willy. Hearing about the life Willy leads with his human friend Annie, Alexander wishes he could become a Wind-up mouse too. Willy tells Alexander something quite astonishing. If Alexander goes into the garden there is a magic lizard who “can change one animal into another.”
The lizard sets Alexander a task. He has to find a purple pebble. Time passes and Annie has a birthday party. Alexander finds something quite awful. Annie has dumped her old toys, including Willy, into a box ready to be thrown away. Eventually Alexander does find the special purple pebble and on the night of the full moon he once again visits the magic lizard. What will he wish for?
This PPT courseware uses the method of guessing words, a question-and-answer format to enrich the way of English classroom learning, and questions that make the brain turn.
If the crow wants to drink the water in the jar, he must read the word in the upper left corner correctly. After reading a word, the teacher clicks on it, and a small ball will fall into the jar. Collect ten small balls to drink water.
This was such a resource to have in class. We do a punctuation unit in the beginning of the year to help students understand what each punctuation mark is and how/when you use them and this was a great way to wrap up the unit. The kiddos love to play bingo so this made it extra engaging.
There is always enough room on your child’s bookshelf for this Classic Board Book edition of the rollicking alphabet chant that has been a children’s favorite for over thirty years!
A told B,
and B told C,
“I’ll meet you at the
top of the coconut tree”
In this lively alphabet rhyme, all the letters of the alphabet race each other up the coconut tree. Will there be enough room? Oh, no—Chicka Chicka Boom! Boom!
Countless children—and their parents—can joyfully recite the familiar words of this beloved alphabet chant. Bill Martin, Jr., and John Archambault’s rhythmic text keeps the beat with Caldecott Honor illustrator Lois Ehlert’s bold, cheerful art.
