Welcome to Litsy!

Blurb:
I would use this book when the class is learning about different living environments throughout the world. Hot vs. cold, and what animals live in each.

Quote:
“In their tidy black feather tuxedos with their proper posture, they reminded Elliot of himself.“

Review:
The book won a Caldecott Honor Medal in 2013. The book is about a distinguished boy who went to the zoo and decided to bring a penguin home with him. The penguin reminded him of himself. They both wear tuxedos. The boy does research on the penguin and learns how to take care of him.

“Thats right said his father, As for captain cook he added, He came from the Galapagos Islands.“

I think this book would be a silly story to read students and I think it would make them laugh, I like the twist at the end where we see the dads pet

This book won the Caldecott award in 2013, it is a story about a boy and his fathers trip to the aquarium, the boy asks to buy a penguin and when he does the sales man thinks he means a stuffed animal, the boy takes the penguin home and we see him try to adjust everything to suit the penguin, the dad eventually finds out about the penguin and when you think he will be upset he reveals he also has a strange pet, a tortoise.

“May I please have a penguin?”

One Cool Friend by Toni buzzer was the Caldecott winner in 2013. This book is hilarious and unlike any other I have read! Students will adore this book

This picture made me laugh

Mainly uses the colors black and blue to illustrate the pictures is the book. It is a book that has a good story line about friendship.

This book is a fun book to read to children if you talk about penguins, Antarctica, or being a good friend.

“Even Ferdinand Magellan looked like his kind of guy.“

This story would be a great read aloud to incorporate into science. After reading this story, the students could think about their favorite animal, why they like it, some of the characteristics of that animal, and find the origin of the animal as well.

One Cool Friend by Toni Buzzeo was published in 2012 and won a Caldecott Honor Book in 2013. Throughout this story, Elliot describes his penguin and why it is his favorite animal. In the book, they talk about the things that the penguin needs to survive and contains some facts as well.

“'Elliot thought, “kids, masses of noisy kids.“ But he only said, “Of course. Thank you for inviting me.“'

I would use this in my classroom because the students would like the lightheartedness of the book and the illustrations.

This award winner has amazing illustrations that help extend the text with detail. Students will be able to stay engaged with this book with this topic and illustrations.

“'Elliot thought, “kids, masses of noisy kids.“ But he only said, “Of course. Thank you for inviting me.“'

I would use this book in my future classroom because the children would love the pictures but would also love the story of a boy taking a live penguin home. They would also appreciate the silly nature of the book.

This book won the Caldecott Honor Book for its amazing illustrations. The images are unique and really bring the story to life. Children would love this book for the topic alone, but would really love it because of the amazing imagery.

One Cool Friend is a Caldecott Honor sinning book written by Toni Buzzel and illustrated by David Small. This F book tells the story of a boy named Elliot who goes to the aquarium one day with his dad and meets a penguin who he wants to make his pet. I think this book would be a great CR. You could use this book to incorporate science, specially zoology, into your lesson plan. #UCFLAE3414F19

“May I please have a penguin?”

When Elliot takes the smallest penguin and puts him in his bag.

This book has won the Caldecott honor book. This book is awesome and I love that the title is a pun. This book is all about friendship and a cool one as well!

“Where's your penguin? It's in my back pack!“

This book would be great for a 1st to 2nd grade age. It's silly and fits that age perfectly.

Caldecott Honor book. This a wonderful book about a kid wanting a penguin for a pet. This book tells a story using the dialogue from the dad and the kid. It flows easily and is a quick read.

“In their tidy black feather tuxedos with their proper posture, they reminded Elliot of himself.”

This is a sweet and silly tale about the wonders of friendship.

One cool friends written by Toni Buzzeo in 2012 is a Caldecott award winner and a New York Times best seller. It‘s a fun story about a boy who is a little different than the other children but find a best friend where you‘d least expect it.

“They shared a bag of goldfish crackers...”

He bought the penguin for 20 dollars

Published in 2012, the Caldecott honor book is so fun! A tale of a boy and his penguin best friend. But how long can he hide it from his dad?

In his room, Elliot dialed the air conditioner down to its coldest setting. “Maybe you‘d like to skate?” Elliot asked. “Grock!” Said Magellan.

I loved this book. The illustrations help you fall in love with the characters and I loved the ending how his dad has a turtle himself!

One Cool Friend by Toni Buzzeo was written in 2012 and is a Caldecott Honor book. I loved this book. It Elliot is such a lovable character as well as Magellan. It was fun following along with their adventures. I think children would really love this book and would make them want to steal an animal home! I think the story had a good plot and development. I would love to have this book in my classroom, I also LOVE penguins.
