them in and keep the warm. It turns out that no one wants to take them in. In the end they got home and their fire place is going by Elephant and now the house is to hot.
Teachers could use this book to:
- have students create an Alphabet book that is more of a story with each letter then just a phrase. Each letter has a purpose.
-Teacher could make the book into a play and students can act out the roles of the different letter characters.

I truly like the style of this ABC book, with the ABC's corresponding with the development of the story, it's pretty ingenious, but I'm not too fond of the story itself. An anteater, bear, cat and duck look for a place to get warm, and have many adventures along the way, but the characters

themselves are fairly unlovable, ungrateful, and complaining. This will probably not come out a lot at story-time.
