Pelly and Mr. Harrison Visit the Moon

Pelly and Mr. Harrison are perfect for sharing during this year’s One World, Many Stories summer reading program.  I like this book so much I want to name my next dog, Mr. Harrison. There are many delicious ideas for sharing during summertime.  I have a moon girl and dog complete with goggles and helmets that I made from turquoise socks with lightning bolts in the pattern for you to borrow. Make signs for all the barking and labels.  Just putting these up on a flannel framed with the colorful moon houses during the story would be fun for the shouting out variety of storytime.  Play a game of moon catch with one of those bumpy translucent light-up balls.  Keep playing by having kids draw their space transportation (Pelly’s starts in a bathtub). Or play spaceship racing; moon rock digging and star catching.   Read this one aloud for lots of summertime fun ~ Serve S’moons.  Don’t know what they are?   Blast off at your library this summer!
