FREE for a limited time – Adventures of Puppup: Lost at the Zoo. Julia takes her Puppup, her stuffed dog, to the zoo. Children are introduced to 16 different animals as Puppup befriends them. The story is told from the perspective of Puppup  – what he wanted to do and what he did while Julia and her dad rested. Kids will enjoy this cute story with fun animations – jumping fish, monkey-dancing, waterskiing, zebra-riding, and more.

When I was teaching, we had a class stuffed bear (with a journal) that went home with a different child every weekend. The bear then wrote in the journal about his weekend adventures with that child. It was a fun way to encourage writing and reading. This book would be great introduction to that sort of project. 🙂
