Chicky Chicky Chook Chook



Chicky Chicky Chook Chook is a wonderful picture book written and illustrated by Cathy MacLennan. A wonderful rhyming story about animals on a sunny summer day it will have preschoolers captivated with it's silly rhyming verses.

This is a great book to do with a variety of story times but my picks would be for a summer, farm or animal theme. This book is also great for parents who want to introduce children into concepts such as alliteration and onomatopoeia. It is also a great book to read just to snuggle up and read just for fun before bed.

A great easy and fun activity to do with this book is fingerprint pictures. I am including a website that has great ideas and directions.
