As I arrived to tutor a couple of my young students yesterday, one of the girls came running up in great excitement to show me her new books. One of them I remembered with my daughter and I exclaimed, meaning every word, “Oh! That’s one of my favourites!” I read a couple of pages (with loads of expression) to the girls and their babysitter, and they laughed too.
The book, which I recommend highly to all of you, is “Leo the Lop.”
The whole message of the book, presented with a lot of humour, is “What’s normal?” (Good question!)
It’s about a Grade 3 reading level, OK to read aloud to much younger.
