That Is NOT a Good Idea!

That Is NOT a Good Idea! by Mo Willems

Summary:  Illustrations that resemble a silent film tell the story of a plump mama goose who is invited to dinner by a hungry fox while her babies try to warn her that it is a bad idea.

My Thoughts: This story reminds me of My Lucky Day by Keiko Kasza.  It is a funny story with a surprise ending! Who are those chicks really talking to when warning "That is not a good idea!".  This would be so much fun to read aloud to younger kids and have them predict what is going to happen or have them read the part of the little chicks!  Another book from Mo Willems that doesn't disappoint!
