What a lesson!

I first read this book to my twins today ~~ I know they're still young but I want to start reading books that has lessons in it. This one should be a classic! Mr. Toad wakes up after a long winter nap. He goes walking to find a wife. Only on the way to the pond, he comes onto a road and almost gets smashed by an oncoming car. Why? Because he didn't stop, look and listen!This book teaches children how to cross the road safely so they won't get run over by drivers who may not be able to see them. Basically, it teaches you to stop before you cross the road, look left and look right and look left again to make sure there is no car coming and you listen for the car too. Then when all is clear, then it's safe to cross the street.This book is illustrated beautifully ~~ even I like it. The story is cute and importantly, it is entertaining even if it is a lesson book!10-2-03
