Author Study: Mo Willems

One of our favorite authors is Mo Willems! His Piggie and Elephant books are hilarious, we love his Pigeon stories, and he has other wonderful books as well, such as Knuffle Bunny and Amanda and Her Alligator.

We then worked on a class book "Don't Let the Pigeon Drive the..."
