Book of the Week

This week's book is by one of my favorite children's books authors, Kevin Henkes.

The name of the book this week is:

 

"Kitten's First Full Moon"

 

By: Kevin Henkes

 

 

Children seem very curious about night and dark.  This book holds a sweet story of Kitten's First Full Moon and what she thinks the moon is. 

 

After we read this book we pulled out some black construction paper and traced circles with white chalk on the paper.  The kids enjoyed making a full moon and even made marks for stars.

(sadly, I did not take pictures of the activity part)

 

 

Again, Again Rating: 8

 

Mainly because we started the activity after the second reading.

 

 

Here are a few more books by Kevin Henkes to enjoy.
