All the kids in our group are 6 and 7 year olds. We wanted to make a book together.

After that, two big sisters helped us translate our pages. They're in high school.

First, we read Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See? by Bill Martin, Jr. and Eric Carle. We liked it so much, we decided to make our own.

We used colored paper, markers, pipe cleaners and googly eyes to make animals.

Finally, we recorded ourselves reading the pages we wrote. It was fun to listen to everyone's different languages. Our voices sounded funny!

Then, we chose names for our animals and wrote the text for our pages.

We love to read our finished book and hope you do too!
