Day 1 of Picture Book Frenzy: The Whole Wide World and Me by Toni Yuly

The Whole Wide World and Me by Toni Yuly


A great book full of simple and vibrant illustrations that will capture young readers’ attention and the poetic language would make such a fun read aloud! I think this is definitely a book you could read over and over and is a great celebration to being YOU and finding your place in the world.

Use in the classroom

This would be a fun mentor text to use at the start of the year. You could have kids write their own poem about themselves and their world and include similes and metaphors. Or they could write a celebration poem about their place and what they are like.

Happy reading!
