Goggles!

Goggles! 
by Ezra Jack Keats

Peter and Archie were playing in the alley when they found a pair of goggles. Very excited about their discovery, they were startled when some "big boys" appeared, demanding the goggles. Follow along as Peter, Archie, and Willie (Peter's dog) are able to bravely outsmart the big boys and keep their new found treasure!

The Snowy Day

The Snowy Day 

by Ezra Jack Keats

My kids LOVE this story! It is about a little boy named Peter who wakes up to a winter wonderland. You get to follow him through his day as he explores and plays in the snow. After a long day in the snow, Peter comes home with the snowball that he saved in his pocket. Feeling sad that his snowball melted, Peter dreamed that the sun melted all the snow away. Much to his relief, he woke up to another winter wonderland of fresh, new snow.

Peter's Chair

Peter's Chair 

by Ezra Jack Keats

Little Peter is upset because it seems like the new baby sister is getting all of his stuff. He is VERY unhappy when he sees that his old craddle and high chair (once blue) were now pink. In hopes of saving his little chair from being painted pink, Peter decides to run away, with his chair, of course. Realizing that he was too big to even sit in the chair because he could sit in a big boy chair, Peter decides to return home and even suggests that he help paint the little chair pink for his baby sister. This is a great story about some of the adjustments that kids have to make when they have a new baby brother or sister! I used it with my kids to talk about sharing.
