doodle dandies

I bought this product new for a fraction of the cost and it was fine.

Great poetry for kids!

As a substitute teacher it is often difficult to gain and keep the students' attention. This book, Doodle Dandies is a great help! The illustrations and beautiful and vivid, adding much to the words on each page. As a teacher, this book can be used throughout an entire unit on poetry, and also can be used to integrate language arts skills such as creative writing and onomatoepia. This book is a great assest to any classroom library as well as one which can be read over and over again by parents (at home) and children.
