Children are the heroes of this book! Although they are in school to be taught by the adults, they are the ones who really know how to get things done. They are the ones who care for their environment, who can identify a problem, and, above all, who know how to get things moving! They are unwavering in their determination and ability to act!
Parents and teachers will find opportunities within the text to promote children's recognition of rhyme, ability to make predictions and understanding of figurative language and the use of idioms as a way of communicating meaning.
