This means that yes, there are many many books that I can read without even looking at the words.
Brown Bear and Very Hungry Caterpillar are two of the stories to tell felt sets that Story Time Felts sells. So same here I have a selection of things that I sell that I have "sold" to my daycare and the kids love to retell the stories themselves. Sometimes I like telling it this way because then I can ad lib a bit more and control the pace of the story as if there were a few more sentences on one aspect of the story and glossing over another area depending on the age of my group. We just did a workshop here in Ottawa on a version of Where the Wild Things Are at Halloween. http://www.playfeltplus.com
