A Hello, Goodbye Story Time for the New Year and Beyond

on
  Today I’d like to share a book about goodbyes and hellos, endings and beginnings.  Goodbye, Friend! Hello, Friend!  by Cori Doerrfeld is primarily about a friendship, which begins with a “hello” and continues through lots of experiences, including a sad “goodbye.” But it’s also about enjoying different, sometimes new experiences while they last. I found this story very relatable, as my inner child read it thinking of all of the hellos and goodbyes from my own childhood as a military brat.  Continue reading for more about this book and some story time ideas to pair with this charming story. Plus some more books featuring hellos and goodbyes!

Story Time Idea: TWO TOUGH TRUCKS GET LOST

on

 


Here's another book that fits with this week's Summer Challenge theme: Nighttime! If you're in the mood for something just a little spooky, try sharing Two Tough Trucks Get Lost by Corey Rosen Schwartz and Rebecca J. Gomez, illustrated by Hilary Leung, in a dark room with only a flashlight for light. When you're done, talk about what it's like to get lost, then make some spooky shadows!
