Adam Wallace
I am always excited to see what book Adam Wallace comes up with next. His "How to Catch..." series is so much fun. With topics that appeal to kids, and characters that coincide with holidays, his creativity always shines through. We will continue to add to our collection in the library every time he releases another book from the series. Kids love them.
"Last week I saw a mermaid. It's not something I'd pretend! I'd really like to catch her so she could be my friend."
4 out of 5 Stars
Will our character be able to catch the mermaid that she saw? What if she tries to lure her with a treasure chest? A sparkly necklace? A crown? Read to find out if the mermaid falls for the trap!
Kids love this series. They are short and fun. Told in rhyme, Adam Wallace always finds a way to be creative with his characters and their antics. In the classroom, this would be a good book for a STEM lesson. What kind of trap would you try to create to catch a mermaid? It would definitely need to be a different kind of trap than you would need to catch say, a turkey, or the tooth fairy. This is also a good book to use for: begin with the end in mind (make a plan), and writing a how-to story. Cute.
