Today we went out in the woods for a story walk. We walked, skipped, and "flew" to the different pages posted
throughout the woods. We read the story, Thank You Omu! by Oge Mora. It is a wonderful book about a woman
who shares her homemade stew with many people in the neighborhood. When she goes to have dinner that
night she realizes she doesn't have any stew left. Then all the people that she has given food to come to her
apartment and bring her dinner and treats. They have dinner together, dance, and enjoy the evening. The book
celebrates giving. At the end of our story walk, we ran in the fields and rolled down the hills.
What a great afternoon!
