Happy Birthday MaKenzie!

On Friday, we celebrated MaKenzie's seventh birthday. She brought The Lorax by Dr. Seuss. I love this book. Normally, I read this book when we do our unit on rainforests. The kids rarely realize that the book is about someone cutting down the trees in the rainforest. They often just know that it is a Dr. Seuss book with rhymes. We talked about saving the rainforest before we read the book. As always, Dr. Seuss had me tongue-tied throughout the story and the kids love that. It was another great birthday book addition to our classroom library!
