My kids loved the book Hi, Pizza Man!, and it
naturally led to a class book. In each page of the book, I copied the
repeated pattern from the book: "What if it's a pizza _____?" asked
______. _______, ________ pizza ______! The children dictated to me what
animal (or object, I had a pizza tractor!) they wanted to come to the door, and
then illustrated their page.
We made the book in the shape of a circle, and created a construction paper pizza for the cover. This made a very attractive book, as well as a popular one. The pattern made it easy for the kids to "read".
