There's a Frog in my Throat by Loreen Leed & Pat Street
There's a Frog in my Throat is an engaging and comical book filled with 440 animal sayings that are filled with a lot of meaning! This book is jam-packed with similes, metaphors, idioms and proverbs and are scattered vertically and horizontally on each page making it interesting for the reader to read. The illustrations make you giggle and make connections with the sayings. I would definitely read this book with my students to introduce figurative language. I would follow up with an activity on idioms and have them choose a saying and then draw a picture that describes the saying. I think the kids would have a lot of fun with this study!
