4 ā This book sounds like Kristen Bell. It does have a co-author in Benjamin Hart, but it feels like Kristen Bell. The woman you see in interviews, in movies, on podcasts. This feels like her. The book is mainly about being yourself and helping others and the more you do that the more purple you become. That we are all better together when we help everyone else out. I love this. It‘s a nice concept. The idea is there. I think it‘s presented well.

LibrarianRyan It is overly long. Something more used for school than Storytime necessarily. I think this book is well done with the speech variables versus the words of the story. The illustrator Daniel Wiseman has done a fantastic job. This book is fun from beginning to end.

The World Needs More Purple People | Kristen Bell, Benjamin Hart

so-so

I listened to the audio while following along with the kindle version. This book was just meh for me. It was somehow able to be all over the place and vague at the same time. I think it‘s too long winded for its target audience. I was pretty disappointed because I adore Kristen Bell. #BookSpinBingo

This is a cute and funny RF book and I think itā€s great to encourage students to ask a lot of questions like the girl in the book. It can inspire the students (and teachers) and itā€s a great one for the classroom library! #UCFLAE3414SP21 https://uploads-ssl.webflow.com/5e7e39cfcef11f64f0277994/5ea0930ddf66b20f4aa421a... This link has many activities for this book but I specifically love the first one!

ReaganT The activity is to draw the purple people in your life! This book can be taught using UDL principle 8.3 foster collaboration and community by having students talk about the purple people in their life. ESOL strategy 1 teaching questioning for clarification works well with this book because it says purple people ask a lot of questions! 4y

ReaganT Again forgetting the title! The World Needs More Purple People by Kristen Bell (so cool) and Benjamin Hart! 4y

Chaseb hey Reagan don‘t forget to put the genre :) 4y

ReaganT @Chaseb I just noticed that thank you!! 4y

DrSpalding At times you are forgetting to identify the teaching strategy that you would use. Here I assume it would be a read aloud? 4y
