Monday's Great Read
With big fun font and a touch of sarcasm, Squids Will Be Squids, tells Aesop's fables from the view of his newest (and living!) friends, Jon Scieszka and Lane Smith. Writing in the memorable voice we heard in The Stinky Cheese Man and Other Fairly Stupid Tales, the pair switches up Aesop's more traditional animals for squids and walruses, swaps out farm settings for playgrounds and Skunk's front porch, and includes morals for the modern family. To excite kids about fables in a more current way, introduce them to Squid (and company).
