I might have to tell the kiddos to research at home for the follow-up. I'm sure I would also cry in front of the kids. Love the idea of using these non-fiction books for comparison.

Warning, because these stories are on going, my kids requested I google/youtube more info. Owen and Mzee has a happy status, but Tarra and Bella's current status made me cry, infront of the kids. <br /><br />EmilyK4321Teachhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15704593923409212075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3542192013770287134.post-81626870437561688952012-06-26T16:41:48.810-05:002012-06-26T16:41:48.810-05:00Ruby the Copycat by Peggy Rathmann and Stephanie&#...Ruby the Copycat by Peggy Rathmann and Stephanie's Ponytail by Robert Munsch are great books to pair up.Jennifer M.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3542192013770287134.post-60472467949561348972012-06-26T16:14:31.060-05:002012-06-26T16:14:31.060-05:00I read Amazing Grace every year but I will have to...I read Amazing Grace every year but I will have to add Oliver Button to my list!khallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02239761998516039705noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3542192013770287134.post-62786023480213117742012-06-26T14:15:28.515-05:002012-06-26T14:15:28.515-05:00Thank you Barbara for those great suggestions.

They both have a wants vs. needs theme so your Venn diagram would work perfectly because sometimes our wants are needs and vice versa.
