Listening to Prep A and their reactions to, "Can you teach a fish to read?" was hilarious!

Let's wonder together! 

What can you do?

I can hang across the monkey bar!

I can ride a skateboard!

I can ride a bike!

I can read a chapter book!

I can bake a cake!

Every one is a genius!

What can you do?

This is a quirky and inspiring read, celebrating YOU!

Ask your teacher to read it, next time you visit the library.
