We Found Miss Laura on the Map

In the lab today the boys and girls found California on the map. They located Los Angeles where our friend, Laura Numeroff lives. We like her book, If You Give a Mouse a Cookie. We talked about time zones and when we read Laura's letter to us we thought maybe she was still sleeping because it was very early in California.

Dear mrs, Laura,

We saw you on the map. And you live far away and we think you are very sleepy. And think you are very tired. And when you wake up you can finish.

Your fiend,

Dear Laura Numeroff, I like the story that you write. I like the title of your book. I like to read. I like the part when the mouse said can you read me a story. I like your story because the mouse asks for a cookie. You are far away and we are in Delmar. Mrs Weeg showed me where you live. I like to read your story at school. That is a cool book. If you give a bear a gift. [Ronshaya's thoughts for a new book]
