Mary Ann Hoberman and Michael Emberley have added Aesop's fables to their bestselling and award-winning series! Rediscover familiar tales and find new favorites in this irresistible fifth You Read to Me collaboration. These stories of classic characters-from wise ants and kind mice to sly foxes and hungry wolves-are fables as you've never seen them before!
With clear, color-coded typography and clever illustrations, this book "in two voices" uses traditional reading teaching techniques-alliteration, rhyme, and repetition-to invite young children to read along with peers or with an adult.
The team behind the collaborative reading series turns their attention to Aesop's fables. Two readers can recite alternating passages differentiated by color, with the closing morals to be read in unison. Emberley's pencil and watercolor spot illustrations bring fresh energy to the classic tales as well as a softening tone: the Hare and the Tortoise race on bicycles (the Hare wears spandex), and the golden-egg laying goose has a button-up chest, ensuring that the farmer doesn't have to use his knife. The jaunty rhymes and theatrical element of adopting a persona should spark enthusiasm from reluctant readers. Ages 3 6. (Nov.)

reviewed You Read to Me, I'll Read to You: Very Short Fables to Read Together on April 22, 2018 You Read to Me, I'll Read to You: Very Short Fables to Read Together
This book by Mary Ann Hoberman was a compilation of many short Fables. The genre of this book is poetry. This was written in a read together format. I think this book could be used for grades 3-5. Even though it isn't written in a complex way, I think it can be fun for students who are older too.
One activity I could have the class do is work in pairs to practice reading one of the fables, and then present it to the class. This would help students to build fluency and watching other groups perform their poems is engaging and also helps to build fluency. I could also have the students analyze literary devices that occurred throughout the poems. Students could talk about the themes that occured in their poem, or maybe in the poems that others read. There are so many different activities that could take place around this book, especially since it is chunked into many fables.
The reason that this book was a WOW book for me is because I enjoyed reading it with my roommate at my age. Poems like these are engaging no matter a child's reading level. I think it is so important to have books where readers of all levels can engage and gain new ideas from, which is exactly what this book does.
