Exciting New Addition to Amazon Prime

For younger readers and those young at heart, If you Give a Mouse a Cookie has joined the hundreds of exciting videos for those who have Amazon Prime memberships.

The characters from the endearing If You Give a Mouse … books spring to animated life in a new Prime-exclusive Amazon Original series aimed at the 4-to-8-year-old set. Mouse and his friends Oliver, Dog, Cat, Pig and Moose manage to turn the simplest undertakings into a fun adventure. (TV-Y)

I don’t know if the terms will allow you to show the video at school legally but you could definitely have you children read the book and then watch the video and talk about any differences. It’s a great way to teach comparing and contrasting early in a simplistic manner. That is just one thing you could do with the book and video combination. Children love the book series by Laura Numeroff and I am sure they will enjoy the video as well. Finish off the video with some cookies and milk and have a fun time this holiday week! Put all of your ideas like the DEN’s SOS strategy 4 C’s for example in a Livebinder to have handy when you read the book in class.
