  6. My kindergartners did this activity today and they loved it! I stopped reading at the halfway point; we took a break for snack and began the response page for beginning, middle, end. They couldn't wait to get back to the rug, to finish the book!

    Bless their hearts, they wanted to know if the cat knocks over the globe in the sequel. I was delighted to tell them that, although the author didn't write a sequel, she did go on to create Fancy Nancy! Big eyes and Ahhhs! all around :-)
