What could be more fun than a tea party?
“A polka dot tea party of course,” says Jackie Rabbit,
as she delivers party invitations to her friends.
This easy-to-read book teaches children about shapes and patterns (polka dots) found in nature and everywhere you go. It is set in the Sonoran Desert with an owl hidden on every page. The book is fun and engaging while teaching kids the importance of inclusion and friendship. The story lends itself to many learning activities, such as identifying shapes, counting hidden owls, counting push-ups with Leo Lizard, reading and telling jokes, which happens to be motivation for children to read.
The book is a party with everyone participating in the party, drinking imaginary tea, eating imaginary cookies, telling jokes, and dancing, while wearing polka dot crowns and having the best time ever. It is a book that kids will choose to read over and over again, it deserves a place in home, school and public libraries everywhere.
The book is available in both English and Dual Language, English and Spanish.
