Let’s Tell a Story! Fairy Tale Adventure weaves as good as you can

When I was teaching English in Japan the constant bane of my classes was a simple one. “I’m fine thank you”, was their response when I asked them how they were doing.

Let’s Tell a Story is a book series that does a similar thing, but it builds a story that kids can easily create and tell by themselves. Let’s Tell a Story Fairy Tale Adventures is also great because of the sheer variety of stories that kids will be able to build.

Let’s Tell A Story Fairy Tale Adventures is a book that prompts kids 5-9 to tell detailed stories with a myriad of outcomes and characters.

However, what if the building blocks of classification and organization, specifically the animal kingdom were displayed in a hyper-inviting way that encouraged elementary-aged students to explore, learn, ask questions and add to what they’re being taught? That’s the idea behind Kaleidoscope of Creatures, The Colors of Nature Explained by Cath Ard with illustrations by Greer Stothers.
