We have a local 7th grade English teacher who successfully uses Parr's Underwear Do's and Don'ts with his middle-schoolers. What a hoot. Parr is great for reaching different levels of humor. Rob Reid UW-Eau Claire Eau Claire, WI reidra at uwec.edu


I can't believe no one has mentioned the Todd Parr books. They are not exactly baby books, but many two year olds love them as well as my first graders. The bright colors, patterned sentences, and good messages make them a hit with the kiddos. Some titles I remember right now:

Underwear Do's and Don'ts Things that Make you Feel Good This Is my Hair It's Okay to Be Different The Peace Book The Friends Book Zoo Do's and Don'ts The Mommy Book The Daddy Book

Plus a lot more that I can't remember right now.

And now he has one about reading! (The title is something like 'Reading Makes you Feel Good', can't remember right now)
