City Dog, Country Frog

Yesterday, I read this wonderful book to my class:


At the TCTELA conference last month, Katie Wood Ray shared this wonderful book with us. I knew I had to get my own copy.

And I did.

This book is about a great friendship between a dog and a frog. My students love books about friendship.  It's a special book because the illustrations carry the story as much as the text does.  Mo Willems and Jon J. Muth have made this an absolutely wonderful book.

What impact does a friend have on our lives? What carries us forward to make new friends when we lose a good friend?

These are the questions my students and I thought about as we read this book. I highly recommend it.
