and told him to brush his tusks twice a day. In the end Wilbur was glad he went to the dentist.
Personal Reaction:
I enjoyed reading this book about Wilbur the Walrus. It has great pictures of many Walrus'. It's fun to read and shows kids about hygiene.
Classroom Extension Ideas:
1. I would have the class learn how to properly brush their teeth, and teach
them the importance.
2. I would use this book when learning about walrus' or when we learn
about cold places on earth.
