Eric Carle Author Study

The class enjoyed listening and responding to : Do you want to be my Friend? To practice our retelling skills, students chose an animal from the book and drew the picture. Then, we put the animals in order and retold the story. We enjoyed learning that this book is one of Eric Carle's favorite books that he wrote because it is about friendship. Even though this book doesn't have many words, it took Eric Carle two years to complete the book. Did you know this book only has 8 words???
