We Are In A Book!

Willems, M. (2010). We Are In A Book! Illus. Mo Willems. New York, New York: Hyperion Books.

Annotation: In this book, Gerald (the elephant) and Piggie (the pig) realize that they are in a book and what more fun can it be than to control what the readers read. In this book the vocabulary is really random and funny. The word banana is a word they want us to say as readers and they laugh about the control they have over the reader in this book. Very cute!

Genre: Author study

Grade Level: PreK-2nd

Readers who would like this: This would be a great book for a teacher to keep in their library. It is a funny, light read that will be a hit with young readers.

Rating/Response: I give this book a 4. I think Mo Willems brings the fun into reading and has a way with his minimalistic illustrations to draw in the reader.

Question: What if you were in a book?
