If you are familiar with the books Not a Box and Not a Stick by Antoinette Portis, then Bear's story, Not a Toilet Paper Tube will sound a bit familiar.
I scribbled her story out and we haven't had a chance to make it look all pretty, but here is her story.
Not a Toilet Paper Tube
That's a toilet paper tube.
No it's not. It's a a hair dryer.
No! It's a toilet paper tube.
No it's not. It's a megaphone (you know, like the one Sid uses).
No. That's a toilet paper tube.
No it's not. It's a drumstick. Dum da da da dum.
No! It's a toilet paper tube stick!
No it's not. It's an icecream cone. Yum!
No! It's a toilet paper tube!
No it's not. It's a stamp you put in ink.
Or maybe it's just a candle.
Or maybe it's just a toilet paper tube!

LOVE Bear's story! It is so cute. What a creative imagination she has. I think Atira would like that book. Can't wait to see a follow up post for more about this story of Bear's.
ReplyDeleteThank you everyone. Still working on the "good" copy.
ReplyDeleteAw, this was a really quality post. In theory I'd like to write like this too - taking time and real effort to make a good article... but what can I say... I procrastinate alot and never seem to get something done.
