Big Dog... Little Dog (A Bedtime Story)

A book about two mutts who are opposite in every way, but best friends nevertheless. This pre-school book is a great opportunity to present to the children that everyone is different in their own way but special. ( )

This book would be good for teaching ELLs because it offers text in both English and Spanish. It helps students learn opposites.

Fred and Ted are best friends with a lot of differences but they don't let that get in the way.

This would be a neat book to use to practice identifying opposites in Spanish. It is also bilingual, making it easy and fun to read alone.

This story was about a big dog named Fred and a small dog named Ted. Both of the dogs lived in the same house and Ted slept in the big bed and Fred slept in the small bed. The next day both asked each other if they got any sleep and they both said no. A bird flew by and told them that Fred needed to sleep in the big bed and Ted needed to sleep in the small bed. This story teaches children to not make smaller problems into a big problem and try to solve the smaller problems first.
