Laura Numeroff (1985)
This is one of my all time favorite books! I used this book in my lesson about unlimited wants and needs. The students in my class really enjoyed this book and learned a lot about wants and needs. I think it was a great way to demonstrate how the mouse had unlimited wants in this story. It showed them that no matter what you gave him, he always wanted something else. This story is a classic and the majority of students really enjoy reading it and the other books in the series that are very similar to it. I am also using this book as a model for my e-book. We created a classroom book titled, If You Give a Teacher a Dog, as part of my lesson as well. I decided to use that as my e-book and present it to the class.
I think the author does a great job in this story in showing how wanting one thing leads to wanting another. It is a great lesson for kids and it demonstrates it in such a fun way. They story and illustrations in this book are great and as I said before students and adults alike enjoy reading this book!
