I really appreciate it. I've never read Hey, Little Ant, and it sounds like it would be a great candidate for Perfect Picture Books - I'll have to ask my library for it. I love your description of how you used it! The format for Perfect Picture Books is on the Perfect Picture Book tab of my blog, all the way at the bottom, if you feel inclined to join us any week :)Susanna Leonard Hillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17655630528649780363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4647389869700092299.post-56856568555072842712012-03-31T20:48:55.177-05:002012-03-31T20:48:55.177-05:00What a great book!!!

We then hold a debate and have one side of the classroom take the squish statement and the other not to squish. The kids love this.
