I know, as a teacher, I am always looking for good literature. A good book can change a person's life. In this blog, I will review what I believe is a "book worth a look".

It's A Book
It's a Book by Lane Smith is a perfect book for this day in age. The book is based around animal characters and the discussion they are having around a book. The donkey keeps asking what he is holding. Obviously, it is a book. The donkey keeps asking if he can download it, blog with it, plug it in, and so much more.
Check out the video below to get a better idea...
Considering how technologically driven we are in today's world, it is quite funny to see this conversation go on. This would be a great book to show kids just to let them know about the simplicities that a book has. It does not blog, text, nor need to be downloaded. You just pick it up and read! A simple message.
Warning: Be cautious of this book. The book refers to the donkey by its other name...if you catch my drift! It is already proving to be a bit controversial. If you use it in your classroom, be wary of your audience. If anything, just replace the name with donkey and you will be good to go!
If you like this book by Lane Smith, also try John, Paul, George & Ben. This is a great book about historical figures with fun illustrations.
