Wolf's Coming


Wolf's Coming
by Joey Kulka
Lerner, 2007

Summary:  A wonderful twist on the Big Bad Wolf, in this narrative poem, the local animals run and hide and the wolf gets closer and closer, until---Surprise!

Lesson:  I read this during National Poetry Month to the students as an example of poetry.  We then learned the types of books available in the 800's, such as Poetry, Jokes, and Tongue Twisters.  This book also makes use of highlighted adverbs, so I gave it to a student teacher creating a grammar lesson on adverbs. 

Level: 1st-4th
