Have a very berry day!

In celebration of Strawberry Day and the upcoming season for those of us in sunnier climates I give you a few ideas regarding this wee bit of red sweetness!

Today's suggestion is...read a book! There aren't too many books specifically about strawberries but there a re a few about fruit. Don't forget this favorite:
The Little Mouse, the Red Ripe Strawberry, and the BIG Hungry Bear
The Little Mouse, the Red Ripe Strawberry, and the BIG Hungry Bear
Written & Illustrated by Don & Audrey Wood
Published by Child's Play International 1984

What is Little Mouse to do? He has scored a most awesome red, ripe straberry but the BIG Hungry Bear wants it also! The Little Mouse moves the strawberry from hiding place to hiding place until he can't stand it! How does the story end?

More Books:
Strawberries are Red My Very First Book of Numbers
Eating the Alphabet
Jamberry!
The Very Hungry Catepillar
Strawberry Girl

Check back tomorrow for some strawbery playdough fun!
