Description
It is almost Danny’s birthday. He is so excited and cannot wait to open his birthday presents. What does Danny wish for on his birthday? Danny’s Birthday Wishes Lap Book is a Level E, Emergent Reader. Danny’s Birthday Wishes Lap Book, the larger, lap-sized version of Danny’s Birthday Wishes, is the perfect size for reading aloud with children who are just beginning to read on their own.
Danny’s Birthday Wishes Lap Book is part of the All About Me, Unit 1. Each book’s corresponding lesson plan encourages self-awareness by helping students compare what is alike, and what is different, between them and their peers. Using hands-on activities, the students will create their own “All About Me” book to share with classmates and families. Each themed unit consists of six lap-sized (8.5 x 8.5″) books and a coordinating set of detailed, hands-on lesson plans tailored to teach the principles demonstrated in the books. All About Me, Unit 1 comes with the 9.75″ My Very Own Danny Dog to use during classroom story times, or just for fun!
The lap-sized books may also be purchased individually and are perfect for small group reading with students.

“I love that these books are bigger. Some kids just need more space. The larger words (font) and space between them works for kids who have trouble with a smaller fonts.”
