Hey Diddle Diddle: A Food Chain Tale written by Pam Kapchinske and illustrated by Sherry Rogers.
About the book: “Hey Diddle Diddle” is a whimsical journey along a riparian food web through the songs and antics of eight interconnected species. From a shiny green beetle “tappin’ his feet and singin’ a song” to a smug bobcat that feels like the “queen” of the jungle, readers will observe several colorful characters moving through three food chains in a familiar North American habitat. (ages preschool to grade 3)
My Review: What a fun book! The rhythm and the rhyme was so fun to read. The beat was definitely there! At the end of the book, I got, “Again, again!” from my little Rayna (almost 3). We’ve talked about herbivores and carnivores in our homeschool before, I noticed some instruction for further discussion in the back pages of Hey Diddle Diddle. Habitats though might need a little more discussion. We have a game called “Science Stadium” that the kids like to play that help with classification of animals. This book will be a great addition to our science curriculum.
