“It was a quiet day at the zoo. But Amos McGee had a cold. And so, instead of going to the zoo, he stayed home in bed.“
“It was a quiet day at the zoo. But Amos McGee had a cold. And so, instead of going to the zoo, he stayed home in bed.“
But one day, Amos wakes up feeling ill and can‘t go to work. His animal friends, showing their love and gratitude for all he‘s done for them, decide to visit him instead.
I feel this is a great read for around 2nd grade. I think many students would relate to the main characters special interest: animals. I would include this in my future classroom and integrate it into a science lesson.
“Their keeper Mr. Gramzay noticed the two penguins and thought to himself, 'They must be in love.“
This is a perfect book for teaching young children concepts of acceptance, inclusion, and love. A very beautiful book that would be amazing for young readers.
This is such a cute and inclusive book for young children. Some may find it controversial, however it shows such a cute meaning of love. Beautiful book that I forward to using in my classroom.

I‘ve been MIA! Got to spend almost 2 weeks in Germany visiting our daughter and her family. Did a side trip to Belgium. Enjoyed reading to my grandson - 17 books!! I miss them so much and hope they move back to the states soon. 🧡
“Though Amos felt tired, he managed a smile.“ and “Hooray! My good friends are here!“
