OOPS! So sorry y’all! I am in New Orleans for a conference and all day long I kept thinking today was Monday! Yes… with trying to pack and rush out of the house it has been one of those days. 🙂
This is absolutely one of my favorite books of all time.
I know I say that a lot but I am serious. I Ain’t Gonna Paint No More.IS.my.FAVORITE!!
The illustrations and the rhythm and rhyme of this book make it so much fun to read and the kids HOWL with laughter. {especially on the last page}
When I read this book to the kids I actually sing it to the tune of Shortenin’ Bread
One day my mamma caught me painting on the ceiling and the floor and I heard my mamma holler like I never did before…. YA AIN’T GONNA PAINT NO MORE!
I ain’t gonna paint no more, no more. I ain’t gonna paint no more.
That’s what I say but there ain’t no way that I ain’t gonna paint no more.
{Look at the expression on the dog’s face in each of the illustrations…. HILARIOUS!}
Do you see why they howl with laughter?
If not, look a little closer. 🙂
I hope to have a mini unit out for this book soon.
It is the perfect book for teaching rhyming words and so many other skills.
I know I was late but I hope you will still link up! Next week I promise not to be late.
