DIARY OF A SPIDER and A WORM and A FLY!

Laugh out loud funny! I could read these books over and over again. Is it the big kid in me? I guess, but I love how they are written as a diary and in the main character's perspective. What is the day in the life of a worm really like? You'll have to read to find our and laugh along with me and the girls!

   

Literature extension:
Write a family book!  We were brainstorming ideas for our diary this morning- diary of a butterfly or bumblebee?  My oldest wants to write about an animal instead- a bear or deer?  I guess we will have to vote on it.  I think that this would make a great family project, because everyone can participate equally by writing and illustrating their own diary entry.  We have a Pop Up Book kit from Creativity for Kids that I've been wanting to use with the girls. 
I'm so excited now to get started.  Do you want to join us?  If so, I'd love to hear about your ideas!  Don't forget that little one's have stories and ideas in their heads even if they can't write yet.  You can write their words for them and they can illustrate, so even your preschoolers can get involved.

Happy Reading and Writing!
