BOOK:

DANIEL'S GOOD DAY

The people in Daniel's neighborhood always say, "Have a good day!" But what exactly is a good day? Daniel is determined to find out, and as he strolls through his neighborhood, he finds a wonderful world full of answers as varied as his neighbors. Daniel puts all these good days together, they make a lovely poem full of his neighbors' favorite things.

RHYME: LITTLE TURTLE

There was a little turtle,

who lived in a box.

He swam in a puddle,

and he climbed on some rocks,

He snapped at a mosquito,

he snapped at a flea,

He snapped at a minnow,

and he snapped at me.

He caught the mosquito,

he caught the flea,

He caught the minnow,

but he didn’t catch me!

LITERACY TIP

Read with passion! Using inflection and maintaining the same highs and lows in
your voice at the same point in a story helps your child begin to remember the
words and grows their early literacy skills!
