My new favorite book 🛁🐈
2nd graders are reading Bathe the Cat by @AliceBMcGinty and David Roberts and then creating and illustrating their own silly to-do lists.
(Pro tip- drawing on tables amps up the excitement 😆)

He’s stuck at camp.
Imagining disasters that will send everyone home.
But rain doesn't turn into a flood.
Horseflies don’t carry off the counselors.
Bear doesn’t stick around.
Wait!
New friends.
A treasure hunt.
Still the WORST CAMP EVER.
Fred’s one desire in life is to smell the flowers and feel the sun on his fur.
But there’s one thing stopping him.
Monsters can’t go above ground during summer or they explode.
LITERALLY.
Good thing Fred has a plan…

As the weather warms, families and educators start to talk about summer reading programs, and I see a lot of folks asking what their kids should be reading this summer.
The answer: Whatever they love.
That's always true, but it's especially important this summer. (thread)
