We are learning to retell a story...

We have been enjoying the Knuffle Bunny books by Mo Willems.
We retold the stories in  pictures. We had to draw the beginning, middle and end of the trilogy!

The third book is called "Knuffle Bunny Free!".

We also painted one of the characters: Knuffle Bunny!
