Strawberries

The Pizza Hut Book-It! Program began on October 1st.  This week, T and I have been reading books with a strawberry theme.

We've read:

• Cook-a-doodle-doo!                                                                              by Janet Stevens
• The Little Mouse, the Red Ripe Strawberry, and the Big Hungry Bear                                                                                                  by Don and Audrey Wood
• The First Strawberries:  A Cherokee Story                                               retold by Joseph Bruchac
• The Very Hungry Caterpillar                                                                   by Eric Carle

We so enjoyed the book, Cook-a-doodle-doo!  What a delightful story!!  Big Brown Rooster (with the questionable help of his friends) manages to bake a strawberry shortcake which would have pleased his great-grandmother, Little Red Hen.

T and I made our own strawberry shortcake...

which T thought was the "most wonderful, magnificent strawberry shortcake in the whole wide world."  :)
