"Chocolate mousse!" says greedy Goose. "Don't just grab it," says angry Rabbit.Good manners are not on the menu at this meal. Duck won't eat his carrots. Moth's eating the cloth, and Sheep would rather sleep than wash the dishes. Thank goodness some of the animals know how to behave

These are great choices for a Farm Animal unit!:) Chocolate Mousse for Greedy Goose sounds funny, but it looks as though it teaches the important lesson of manners. It is nice to connect with another educator. I have several posts with units for children Pre-K- 5th Grade 10 Incredible Individuals, Apples, and Thanksgiving books. I am pinning this! :)
