Truckery Rhymes
by Jon Scieszka
Simon & Schuster Children's Publishing, 2009
Summary: Mother Goose meets Mater the Tow-Truck! All of your favorite nursery rhymes have been taken down to the Trucktown body shop and given a major overhaul. Be sure to wear your tool belt and hard hat while reading. The illustrations by Gordon, Shannon, and Long add to the hilarity of this book.
Lesson: Previously, the Kindergartners had completed a unit on nursery rhymes. It was wonderful to watch the students make the connections between that unit and this book, watching the light turn on above their heads with each one. It was a great post-assessment tool. Many of the teachers bought this book from the book fair after I showed them this.
Level: PreK-2nd
