Bring four beloved stories and early learning concepts to group reading with this Classic Big Books collection. Oversized paperback formats make text and illustrations easy for children to see while exploring the alphabet, color mixing, friendship, nature, rhyme, prediction, and storytelling during classroom read-alouds and circle time.
- WHAT YOU GET: Set of 4 paperback Big Books including Eating the Alphabet by Lois Ehlert, 40 pages and 18" x 14"; Stellaluna by Janell Cannon, 48 pages and 16" x 16"; Mouse Paint by Ellen Stoll Walsh, 32 pages and 18" x 15"; and The Napping House by Audrey Wood and illustrated by Don Wood, 32 pages and 18" x 16". Oversized formats provide excellent visibility for classroom read-alouds, group learning, and early literacy activities.
- EATING THE ALPHABET: Explore the alphabet from apple to zucchini through Lois Ehlert’s colorful watercolor illustrations and bold, easy-to-read upper- and lowercase letters. Familiar and unusual fruits and vegetables from around the world build letter recognition, vocabulary, and food awareness, while a detailed glossary provides pronunciation, botanical facts, origins, history, and additional information.
- STELLALUNA: Follow a young fruit bat who lands in a bird’s nest and adapts to the unusual habits of her new bird family. This classic story explores friendship, belonging, similarities, differences, and adaptation while introducing characteristics of bats and birds. Two pages of notes provide additional factual information about bats.
- MOUSE PAINT: Three curious white mice discover jars of red, blue, and yellow paint and begin jumping, dancing, and experimenting with color. Bold cut-paper collage illustrations introduce primary colors and demonstrate how they combine to create green, orange, and purple while supporting color recognition, cause and effect, and early art concepts.
- THE NAPPING HOUSE: Repetitive, cumulative language follows a snoring granny, dreaming child, dozing dog, snoozing cat, and slumbering mouse piled together in a cozy bed until an unexpected visitor wakes the house. Rich full-color illustrations, rhyme, humor, and opportunities for prediction encourage children to participate in this classic story.
