The Night Before Mother's Day

The Night Before Mother's Day
By Natasha Wing
Illustrated by Amy Wummer
Realistic Fiction

In this book the dad of two little girls tells them his plan to get their mother out of the house so they can work on her Mother's day surprise.  He got her to go out running with her friends and as soon as she had left the house they all started running to the kitchen to get everything ready.  They measured all the ingredients for a cake and they mixed them.  After that they made some cards for their mom where they wrote that they loved her and put a coupon for their mom.  The next morning they woke her up with a bouquet of flowers and told her "Happy Mother's Day!"  They gave her the cards and she was surprised soo then they took her to the kitchen where they gave her coffee and a spa.  They rubbed her shoulders and gave her a mud mask.  After that, their dad prepared the food and brought out the cake.

I would use this book in y class because it is full of illustrations and I know the kids would like it, especially the girls.  I would put this book on the reading corner so they could grab it for reading time.  This book is appropriate for Pre-K and Kindergarten.
