Jack B. Ninja by Tim McCanna - ESSENTIAL

McCanna, Tim Jack B. Ninja, illustrated by Stephen Savage.  PICTURE BOOK.  Orchard, 2018.  $17.  9780545917285.

Jack B. Ninja is on a secret mission to rescue a stolen treasure chest.  He’ll fight through danger and foes to reach his goal. 

What a clever twist on the familiar nursery rhyme!  There’s a whole instant unit ready to teach comparing classic nursery rhymes to some of the clever rewrites available and possibly letting them try their hand at their own parodies.
