Our Focus Stories this week will help us to answer the question: What do scientists do when they discover something new? Both stories fall under the genre of Fantasy. Our first story will be
Duck & Goose, written and illustrated by Tad Hills.
Duck and Goose have to work at getting along - Duck doesn’t much care for Goose at first, and Goose isn’t fond of Duck. Both, however, want the egg that each claims to be his. As the two tend to their egg, and make plans for the future, they come to appreciate one another’s strengths.
Our second story this week will be Curious George's Dinosaur Discovery by Margret and H.R. Rey. Curious George loves dinosaurs, so he’s excited to visit a dig to look for real dinosaur bones. Will the curious little monkey help make a big discovery?
