1 post | 1 read
There's been a robbery in Tale Town! Someone has stolen a cutting from the magical Story Tree, and it's up to twins Hansel and Gretel to get it back. With the help of their new friend Wolfie, a not very big or very bad wolf, they discover a secret fortress in the forest, containing a Magic Looking Glass that promises to help them. But things are not always what they seem, especially when the Magic Looking Glass starts causing trouble! Can Wolfie and the twins find the Story Tree cutting and save the day, or will the Magic Looking Glass have the last laugh? The Magic Looking Glass is the fourth book in this brilliant new highly-illustrated series by Tom Percival, featuring all the fairy-tale characters you know and love having brand-new adventures!

This Modern fantasy is perfect for readers who are transitioning into chapter books. The book includes characters such as Hansel & Gretel, the Big Bad Wolf, and even mentions Rapunzel. I would suggest this for a PR because I think the students would enjoy discussing these known characters go on an adventure to find a magical tree branch as well as a pair of magic scissors. #UCFLAE3414SP18

Laura.S The website is super cool because it offers a club for children who read these books in the Little Legends series. EL 4 as well as UDL 3.1 both focus on linking lesson topics to background knowledge. I think it would be fun to talk about Hansel and Gretel and about the Big Bad Wolf, as they are both we‘ll known characters. This could help tie in traditional literature as well! 6y
morganhillman This book sounds so cute! I think that students would love to read this because they can use some background knowledge on some of the characters and get excited to read about more! That website also sounds great and engaging! 6y
erin.yarbrough THIS LOOKS ADORABLE! 6y
LisaMart Kids will love this book because they know the characters and get to follow them again in a different story! Great post! 👍 6y
DrSpalding I‘m thinking this is a series. If you can hook the students into enjoying one, they may enjoy many in the series. 6y
