One of my favorite children's books is Bark George By: Jules Feiffer. In the story Bark George, George the dog has a problem. Every time he barks a different animal sound comes out; so his mom takes him to the vet. The vet examines George and discovers that George has swallowed various animals. All of my students have loved this book and get very involved with this story. They love the illustrations and all of the animal sounds. This is an excellent book for preschoolers. You can also connect the book with other activities in different areas of the room. This story makes a great felt story as well. You can make a big George and put all the animals in him and the child can be the vet and pull them out one at a time.
