Reading Through the Alphabet: G



We are reading the letter "G" this week! Here are the picture books we will be reading:

Grandpa Bud
The first book was my sister's favorite when we were growing up: "Grandpa Bud" by Siobhan Dodds. This is a really fun book to read aloud! A little girl named Polly calls her Grandpa and asks if she can come over and spend the night. She tells him she would like a chocolate cake, as well! Then she proceeds to call him several more times, inviting more friends and requesting their favorite foods, as well. In the end, her friends turn out to be stuffed animals! Polly, Grandpa and her stuffed animals enjoy the feast he prepared.

We're Going on a Bear Hunt (Classic Board Books)

The next book is one my kid's favorite stories! "We're Going on a Bear Hunt" by Michael Rosen and Helen Oxenbury is a classic children's book. The family is going on a bear hunt, but there are many obstacles they must overcome. What happens when they finally do see a bear? It's also a really fun read aloud book. And for some reason, I always read it with a British accent? Hmm...

Goodnight Moon
 
"Goodnight Moon" is also a very well known and well loved children's book. We have several copies! It's a calming book to read before bed, saying goodnight to everything in the house.
 
I'm excited to see what books you've read that begin with "G"! Link up any posts, old or new, and be sure to visit the other blogs. Thank you!

  1. We're Going on a Bear Hunt is one of my all time favorite books! We used to use that in our day care all the time and I memorized it for oral storytelling. Those sound words were great.
