Librarian Note: There is more than one author by this name in the Goodreads database.
Readers of David Martin's books won't be surprised when they meet the author and find that he is just as entertaining as his books - he sings, plays the guitar or the kazoo, or even juggles during his school visits. As David Martin says, "I have never minded particularly making a fool of myself," so he is never at a loss to illustrate his points or to make a connection with the kids. In his interactive sessions, he also works with students to create their own books or to produce oversized class books. The author's ease in the classroom comes from his hands-on teaching experience: he's an eighteen-year veteran of elementary and middle schools.
A native of Queens, Martin has lived in northeast Vermont with his family since 1970.
I love these "Brand New Readers." They're great for the very earliest readers. They have just a few short words on each page, it's easy to tell what's going on by looking at the pictures, and they're well written usually with a funny ending.
Simple stories. Caleb liked to spin with the bears. I changed the words in the last story about the green food. We also talked about how baby bear shouldn't have gotten ice cream since he didn't eat his veggies.
