Chicka Chicka Boom Boom

Today was very exciting for story time!  This week is Kansas Reads to Preschoolers Week and the book that was Kansas Center for the Book chose as this year's title is Chicka Chicka Boom Boom by the late Bill Martin, Jr.  I love this book, as I love everything that Martin ever wrote.  The rhythm of the text and the bright illustrations just beg to be enjoyed by kids. I was thrilled that over 30 children were present at story time today. I also provided some early literacy activities for the children and caregivers to do at home.  If anyone needs extra copies of the activities, please let me know. Happy Reading!
