Description
In Danny’s Rocket Lap Book, Danny wants to make a rocket that flies to the moon. Unfortunately, he is too big to ride on the rocket. Who can he get to go in his place? Danny’s Rocket Lap Book is a G leveled, Upper Emergent, lap-sized title. Danny’s Rocket Lap Book, the larger, lap-sized version of Danny’s Rocket, is the perfect size for reading aloud with children who are just beginning to read on their own.
Danny’s Rocket Lap Book is part of the is part of the Playing and Learning Together, Unit 2. The interactions between Danny and Bee, in the specially selected six books, teach emotional awareness, and encourage empathy and self-regulation. Each book’s corresponding lesson plan is tailored to teach the principles of self-sufficiency, emotional awareness, and empathy demonstrated in the books.
Each themed unit consists of six lap-sized (8.5 x 8.5″) books, a coordinating set of detailed, hands-on lesson plans tailored to teach the principles demonstrated in the books, and a My Very Own Mini Bee, just like Danny’s toy, Bee, featured in the Unit 2 books.

“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.”
