This is a cool book about reusing object. This would be fun to use in a homec class or just to teach kids about reusing things. This is a book about an old man who reuses his coat until its all gone.

I think this book is for intermediate and primary students. It is a poetry book about an old lady who is swallowing animals in the hopes that they will swallow the animal she ate before. then she dies after eating a horse.

We live really far away from our loved ones, so this is a special one for us. I will confess it made me tear up the first time I read it. I wish I could mail myself to my mom, and have her feed me dinner and tuck me into bed. I wish it was as simple as that.
