Welcome to the Super Dad Giveaway hosted by MamaNYC.
So do you know a super dad? Honor him this Father’s Day with a prize from Savings in Seconds. In this prize package, one lucky dad will win 2 copies of The Monarch of Tall Pines Pool. This way, the lucky dad can read the book with his children. When reading together, it’s always nice to have two copies so that each reader can see the words. In this book the illustrations are hand-drawn by the author so it’s also a treat to look at those. Additionally, I found this book to be an exciting description of a fishing trip. When Jeff and his grandfather go out in search of a legendary fish, it’s an amazing adventure. The story is sure to be the inspiration for dad to share some stories from his childhood days. There are all sorts of ways to incorporate this story into a lesson plan if the Super Dad is a teacher or homeschools. This book could be used as the basis for a unit on biomes, habitats, environmental change, and animal behavior. In a Language Arts unit, the focus could be on descriptive words and character traits. Another idea would be to use it as a “tall tale” unit. I can think of so many ways that The Monarch of Tall Pines Pool could be used in a classroom! It could also be the scaffold for a field trip to a local state park or something similar. My children would certainly love to go on a fishing trip as described in this story. Wouldn’t this be a great way to start some adventures this summer?
