Down by the Cool of the Pool
by Tony Mitton , Guy Parker-Rees (Illustrator)
Scholastic, 2002
Summary: A frog, duck, pig, and friends dance themselves silly until they crash and splash into the cool pool.
Lesson: Based on its name, I was expecting a rhyming book, but it was more than that. It is filled with action verbs and onomatopoeias. With K-2, we made a dance of the action verbs and livened up the story. With older kids, I would have talked more about onomatopoeia.
Level: K-2nd
