Welcome to Litsy!

I've only read 2 books in this series #outloud to my students, and by far, this edition is the funniest. It's about having space and accepting others. It has a touch of romance. Romance is hard to find in the pre-K to 3rd grade target range.

Illustrator (if applicable): Tim Bowers
Date of Publication: April 1,2010
Genre: Fiction
Brief Summary: This is written in a dairy style. This is about a goldfish and all of her knew members of the tank. This ranges from Mr. Bubbles to ChaCha. He wants them to get out and for him to have his own space till they all get separated.
Side note: Good for point of view

The book Memoirs of a Goldfish by Davin Scillian, won the USA Book News Award, fiction, can be used as a read aloud. The book is about a lovely little fish that lives in a small bowl. The colorful illustrations bring out the life of this quirky tale. The book is a goldfish in the bowl as other intruders crowd him. When the fish relocate he misses them.

Adorable, funny, and sweet. A great read-aloud.

An adorable book!! It is never to early to introduce children to memoirs! My favorite genre!

Memoir of a Goldfish by Devin Scillian is a MF book that won a Wonda Gág Read Aloud Book Award in 2011. This book is so cute and has a heartwarming message. I would definitely use this as a RA in my class, maybe even the first week of school. The book is all about sharing a space with lots of other people. I would Incorporate UDL Strategy 3.4 to help students understand that we are like Goldfish because we are sharing a classroom with each other.

We got goldfish in kindergarten today and enjoyed this hilarious book #teachersoflitsy

This was the cutest little story ❤️

Too cute. Have you ever wondered what it was like to be the only goldfish in the tank? What happens when you start getting more, and more, and more. You just want your little bowl all to yourself again ... maybe.
