Corduroy | Don Freeman

This book brings back so many memories! It‘s about a bear named Corduroy that is in a mall and he just wants an owner! He adventures through the mall when he realizes his button on his outfit is missing. It‘s an easy enough read that it should be good for IR. The link is for recognizing the characters in the book, it would work with younger grades. http://www.readwritethink.org/files/resources/ lesson_images/lesson30/characters.pdf #ucflae3414sp20
