The First of Octember


Title: Please try to Remember the First of Octember!
Author: Dr. Seuss
Illustrator: Art Cummings
Ages: 4-6
Rating: 4/5

Plot: The first of Octember is a magical time, where anything you want is YOURS!

Assessment: This is a fun imaginative story or long poem. The words sound good in a readers ears, and the illustrations just help to spur the imagination!

Some nonsense words may be frustrating for some readers who try to link the words with things from real life. At the same time, the nonsense words can help to reinforce the sounds that different letter combinations can make.
