“Nipple nipple, little mouse, who is nibbling at my house”

Again I won‘t use a brothers Grimm book in the classroom even with other child because they are very dark book. However there are kid friendly versions of this story out there but the story is still pretty dark.

this book was very interesting and I really enjoyed it. I got this one from the library and it wasn't quite what I thought it was. It is different than the copy I have at home as it's more kid friendly. however I still don't know if I would have it in my classroom

Traditional literature

This story is wonderful to teach students about the dangers of being overconfident and the fact that even if someone says they‘re better than you it doesn‘t make it true.

“Slow and steady wins the race.”

This would be a great story to have children compare with other depictions of the story. They could compare the words or the illustrations. It can also serve as a great writing prompt.
