Little Kids Love This

Remember when you were a kid and tried on your mom or dad's coat? Well if you do this book will bring back memories. Its a charming and funny little story about a boy who wears a very over sized coat. The pictures will make you smile. An easy read for second and third graders. This book appeals to Tomie De Paola fans because of the cover but Watson's style is not as engaging or amusing. I've used this book as way to open up discussions about the changing seasons, feeling overwhelmed or too little or how we feel about hand me downs. It really inspired kids to write some thoughtful and touching responses. Nice addition to your ESL shelf. Fun to read if your school is planning a coat drive.
