This is a Moose by Richard Morris –ADVISABLE


Morris, Richard This is a Moose 48 pgs. Little, Brown Books for Young Readers, 2014. $18.00 Content: Language: G (0 swears); Mature Content: G Violence: G. PICTURE BOOK
When a movie director decides to make a movie about Moose in their wild natural habitat, things don’t go as planned. Turns out that Moose and other animals have their own ideas about what is normal! In fact, this Moose wants to be an astronaut.
This was an adorable book. It sort of reminds me of M is for Moose since there is a director calling out commands. The art was wonderful! I think it would be great for a lesson on breaking free of preconceived roles, like gender roles.
