Here I am reading A Place for Frogs to 100 kindergarteners at the Salisbury Universty Children’s Literature Festival. I was worried about 100 wiggly bottoms, but those kids were great. They all stay focused.
What was the secret of my success? Having them particpate the repetitive phrase “frogs can live and grow” on each spread. Thanks to Shelly Rotner for helping me come up with a strategy that worked like a charm!
