First the Egg

First the Egg

By Laura Vaccaro Seeger

This book would be a great book to use as a read aloud in a primary classroom when starting a unit on cycles. Each page starts with a picture of something small (like a tadpole) with a cutout in the page, then the next page uses the same color from the the first to make something bigger (like a frog). I really loved how colorful the pages were. The pictures were very inviting to children and would easily catch the attention of young readers.
