Stone Soup

I thought this book was unique. It is a group of stories, essays, and poems all written by children about holiday things. I was excited to read it with my kids but it didn't hold their attention. I enjoyed it and thought it was a great way to show my kids that you can be an author at any age but maybe it was just the mood they were in, but they weren't very intrigued by it.

A fun collection with good stories that I enjoyed experiencing!

The Stone Soup Book of Animal Stories is a sweet collection of stories written from the hearts of children. The imagination and vocabulary of these young authors gives me great hope for the future of our literary culture!!

I enjoyed this book of short stories, and was happy to add it to my classroom library. It was meaningful that the stories had been written by young authors, and I am happy to use a select few with students as read alouds. I was a little disappointed with the layout/font of this edition - I don't feel that it makes for an easy independent read for my students.
