#1
Bob the Rooster is happy living
in the coop with all the chickens. But he has a problem. Henrietta
the Cat has told him that roosters don't cluck like chickens. They
crow and wake everyone up! Now, Rob has never heard a rooster and doesn't
know what it sounds like to crow. He's only heard clucking.
So Henrietta tries to teach him. But all she can do is meow!
Join Bob and he searches for the sound that will make him top rooster in
the coop.
Booktalk #2
Meet Bob. He’s a rooster
who doesn’t know how to crow! He can “meow,” and “woof,” and “ribbet,”
but he doesn’t “cock-a-doodle-doo” until he meets another rooster named
Fred. Read the book to find out how important it is to speak many
languages! YUM-YUM-BUGS! (D’Etta Broam, South
Carolina Book Awards, 2006) |
