Is This a Plum?

Description Share Post Is This a Plum? Dan & Finn Ojari (Penguin Random House) Is This a Plum? Or might it be ‘a tiger’? Yet, surely we see a spider? Then again, while we see a spoon, it is in fact, the moon! Can we go further? Perhaps we’ll guess at a goose, only to find… a moose! Furthermore, a pear? What do you think? A bear? Like Emma Yarlett’s wonderful Nibbles The Book Monster series, we’ve inspired cutouts throughout this picture book. Then again, we’ve rhyme, which offers ripe prediction opportunities.  However, there is a clarity in the succinct rhyming text, a Q & A, that makes readers need to participate. What’s more, there’s such curiosity in the selections, beginning with the first. Dan Ojari‘s motivation for creating Is This a Plum? came from Finn’s observations. Thereafter the two built this enticing picture book, full of laughs and a need to read aloud, predict and join in. Bookwagon recommends this picture book highly to our readers.
