We also love Mouse Tales. Incidentally, did you know that Mr. Lobel's daughter published a collections of her father's poems? They're cute too.Carriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14755652309595005430noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8612255949290013608.post-769663173583966932011-04-28T06:07:41.372-04:002011-04-28T06:07:41.372-04:00My children have always loved the Frog and Toad st...My children have always loved the Frog and Toad stories. What intrigued me most about your article, however, is the fun yet simple game you developed to help your daughter practice high frequency words. I especially like the suggestion to have her tally the words as it gives her a reason to focus on the words as she plays the game. Thank you so much for sharing.Evelynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04839884466037714350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8612255949290013608.post-90192289685666835272011-02-10T18:01:26.116-05:002011-02-10T18:01:26.116-05:00Karen,

We have been reading Arnold Lobel for years and he is a favorite with my kids too. I am new to Mother Culture online-but have enjoyed your books for years. I have met you a few times- at Search and CHAP. Looking forward to reading more blogs.thanksBonnienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8612255949290013608.post-91701135321722441492010-12-06T12:30:40.241-05:002010-12-06T12:30:40.241-05:00I found and bought the plush Frog and Toad dolls a...I found and bought the plush Frog and Toad dolls a few years ago and I can't remember where I purchased them. <br /> Glad I got them when I did. <br />These books are spectacular for early readers. My children have thoroughly enjoyed them! <br /> We also enjoyed "Owl at Home". How sweet the chapter was entitled "Tear Water Tea" I believe?! So great to see others have or will be enjoying these books in their homes as well! Wonderful blog Karen!Christie Currynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8612255949290013608.post-1801420636706017732010-12-03T08:47:21.151-05:002010-12-03T08:47:21.151-05:00Nicole,

Dean checked for me this morning and found that a pair sold on e-bay recently for more than 50 dollars. It might be fun to try and make them by modifying a teddy pattern. Your word "minibeast" has started my day with a smile.<br /><br />Richele,<br />It is good to hear that what my children remember about their learning experiences is of some interest. I found the swimsuit story funny, too, especially the way Arnold Lobel reads it on the CD. <br /><br />KarenKaren Andreolahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12135239838790568639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8612255949290013608.post-59535265313510747542010-12-03T03:44:56.542-05:002010-12-03T03:44:56.542-05:00We are enjoying Frog and Toad stories as my son is...We are enjoying Frog and Toad stories as my son is learning to read. He is a collector of all varieties of minibeasts. It is Tadpole season in Australia and we currently have a bucket of tadpoles waiting to transform into our own frogs and toads. Are the frog and toad figures still available? They are lovely.nicolenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8612255949290013608.post-15104930445451283542010-11-29T23:23:47.802-05:002010-11-29T23:23:47.802-05:00Oh, what a treat to read your daughter's revie...Oh, what a treat to read your daughter's reviews and get to see the writing of an adult schooled with Charlotte Mason's methods to boot.<br />That's just as good as a butterscotch pudding!<br /><br />I can still feel Toad's pain when he felt uncomfortable in his swimsuit.Richelehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10040133815286428699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8612255949290013608.post-38375775445632563282010-11-29T14:09:32.285-05:002010-11-29T14:09:32.285-05:00I am in Love with the stuffed frog and Toad in you...I am in Love with the stuffed frog and Toad in your pics. :) They are so sweet.LadyJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09353464862605322023noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8612255949290013608.post-11099790480037835452010-11-29T08:55:29.945-05:002010-11-29T08:55:29.945-05:00I am going to get these from the library for Sarah...I am going to get these from the library for Sarah to read!
