( )This story starts out with "if you give a moose a muffin, he'll want some jam to go with it". For everything then that leads from this, he wants something else. This is a very fun and imaginative book. Reading Level 1.9 This book is such a cute and fun book to read to students. This moose gets distracted very easily and is so scatter-brained that it will crack students up This book is one of the few that has no lesson to it that i can find. It is just a very fun book to read, maybe even if you are learning about cooking, or if you are celebrating something and want to hand out muffins. "If you give a moose a muffin, he'll want some jam to go with it...." This is a very well known line from a very well known children's book. The humorous books written and illustrated by Laura Numeroff, and Felicia Bond, are favorite books by children and adults alike. These books are a great way to introduce cause and effect to elementary school children, as well as some science process skills as well. Children will be using inferences to guess what the moose will want to have next. Observation is another key process skill that will be used based on the colorful illustrations. Readers will love the detailed illustrations with each turn of a page, and the familiar antics of the main character, which in this case is the moose. Laura Numeroff is the author of many books for young children and early readers. Other books by Numeroff include: If You Give a Mouse a Cookie, If You Give a Pig a Pancake, If You Give a Cat a Cupcake, and If You Take a Mouse to the Movies. All these books are illustrated by Felicia Bond. Laura Numeroff lives in Los Angeles, California, and is still adding to her large collection of books for young readers. She just wrote a new book called, If You Give a Bear a Brownie. It was published and released in 2009. This book could be used for many lessons and ideas in the classroom. Children love the witty lines and situations in this series, and If You Give a Moose A Muffin, is no exception. Cause and effect is a major idea in this book, however even the smallest details can be brought to the attention of the children in the classroom. On the cover of the book, there are moose tracks. Ask the children where the moose may have come from, what do we know about the tracks and what could have caused them? Children will use the science skill of inference to come to a conclusion from the clues presented throughout this book as to what could possibly happen next; he will probably want some jam to go with his muffin. Cute, humerous book. Has a great theme and great for children of all ages. I enjoyed this book so I know my students will enjoy it as well. Very funny and keeps you interested. no reviews | add a review
