A Great Read Aloud!

Today we read the story Children Make Terrible Pets by Peter Brown.

This is a wonderful read aloud.  Lucy the Bear finds a pet in the forest she names “Squeaker” after the squeaky sound he makes.  At first, the pet is wonderful and Squeaker and Lucy have lots of fun.  Soon, Lucy discovers Squeaker may not be the perfect pet.  He has trouble being potty trained and likes to rip the furniture.  Squeaker eventually finds his family again and Lucy now wants an elephant for a pet.  This book is available at our school library if you wish to borrow it to share with your family!  Enjoy!
