Chocolate Mousse for Greedy Goose

Product Information

This would be a good book to read alone for a child of age 5, as because the words are fairly simple, they can make use of their phonics knowledge. Julia Donaldson has written some of the world's best-loved children's books, including modern classics The Gruffalo and The Gruffalo's Child, illustrated by Axel Scheffler, which together have sold over 25 million copies worldwide and have been translated into over one hundred languages. We want a song about throwing crumpled-up wrapping paper into the bin” was a typical request from the BBC.

So, although the senences are not detailed or extensive it still provides an opportunity for young readers to build on their vocabulary.I now believe this item is out of print and may not be reprinted, so its unlikely this seller has any of tese books to sell, even though it is still listed as being available. Plus the paper is a bit thicker than normal, so my youngest (who isn't that careful with books) doesn't rip anything.

It gives young readers the chance to look at the picture and link them to the words of the title, a good way of young readers creating an understanding that words have meaning. Recommended for younger children (3 to 5 year olds) could be used as the foundation for introducing animals or discussing table manners and appropriate behaviour during meal times. I looked at the book I got from Appu World library of Hyderabad and thought how it can hold my son’s interest, I mean the book was that simple!The illustrations in this book, which are done by Nick Sharratt (well-known as the illustrator of Jacqueline Wilson’s books), are very effective and provide children with a visual image of what is happening without having to read the text and see what the character is saying. Having previously read 'The Gruffalo' by Julia Donaldson, I decided to try and locate another one of her books and across this one. Nick has won numerous awards for his picture books, including the Sheffield Children’s Book Award for A Cheese and Tomato Spider and the Nottingham Children’s Book Award for Elephant Wellyphant.

I have given this book 3 stars simply because it did not enterain me as much as The Gruffalo and I was expecting something more along the lines of her book being witty and funny. I read this book with my nephew and nieces but I highly recommend for a nursery class when introducing rhyming, animals or even healthy eating!Tissue Paper and Empty plastic bottles: play plus fine motor strengthening, tripod grasp, defining arches of the hand, bilateral hand coordination, eye-hand coordination, colors, and FUN! Perfect for reading out aloud with varying vocal tones to further engross young children in the meal time behaviours of the featuring animals.

They can be asked to label it as well as maybe guess the sounds that some of these animals make, therefore knowledge that extends the actual content of the book.

Trademark Julia Donaldson rhymes and rhythms are perfect to read aloud, and Nick Sharratt’s mischievous and funny illustrations make the bright and playful Chocolate Mousse for Greedy Goose a sure winner. She's been learning new animals (gazelle, moth) and whilst she hasn't grasped the concept yet the book covers a lot of emotions/personality traits - happy, sad, greedy, shy etc. This creates opportunities for pupils to guess what animal may be next and thus gives them a chance to think and access knowledge about animals and their features. This prompted me to unearth some plays I’d written for a school reading group, and since then I’ve had 20 plays published. Written in a very interesting way to engage young children - Each animal is introduced with a describing word before it and the book has rhyming words in each sentence to capture the reader’s (or listener) attention.The book is essentially about table manners and Julia Donaldson uses rhyme and lots of adjectives in the story to get children to describe ways of eating and cooking food. This then could lead to a taster session where children get to try lots of food form around the world.
