Little Old Lady Who Was Not Afraid of Anything

I adore books! Many lessons can be taught with each and every picture book. I do however have some favorites. One favorite book is called "The Little Old Lady Who Was Not Afraid of Anything" by Linda Williams. This book has excellent repetition to help kids repeat what they are hearing. There are fabulous words that can become actions such as "clomp clomp, wiggle wiggle, and clap clap" Each year I read this story to my students. Even my quietest students would become vocal trying to say what was happening in the story. We sequenced the story using pictures of the items that followed the little old lady. My art project was to recreate a scarecrow.
