- Glue ears to top of head band.

Extension Activities:
- Discuss expectations of how you expect a story to go.  All three of this week's books defy expectations of how stories will proceed in some way.  Ask your child how you thought the books would go versus how they actually ended.
- Learn more about what different animals eat. There are several great books at the library on the topic that can be checked out.
- Read the poem "The Tyger" by William Blake that Fear the Bunny is based on.
- You can vote for your choice for the Building Block Award after reading/listening to five of the nominees.  Click HERE to vote.
