It Is a Tree

Funny animals play a party game that’s both silly and thought-provoking. Perfect for new readers. It is a tree. It is a wall. It is a snake. It is a fan. A zebra, a giraffe, a turtle, and others play a party game. Blindfolded, they guess what’s in the room. Is it a wall? A rope? A fan? No. It’s an elephant! This very easy-to-read story, based upon the ancient Indian parable about the blind men and the elephant, teaches point-of-view. The award-winning I Like to Read® series focuses on guided reading levels A through G, based upon Fountas and Pinnell standards.
