This Week at Toddler Storytime: Pets

We did two of my favorites today, Bark George by Jules Feiffer....

...and Move Over Rover! by Karen Beaumont. Rover is enjoying a bone alone in his doghouse when it begins to rain. One by one animal animals looking for someplace to ride out the storm squeeze in with Rover. Suddenly a horrible smell sends them all running to reveal skunk who has been hiding deep inside the doghouse all along. I never get tired of the squeals of delight when skunk is revealed. Toddlers talk at length about how skunks stink. I always put the props out after storytime to let the kids explore and retell the story.
