Hallie's current favorite "grandma" books. She pretty much has it memorized, but she still pulls it out and wants grandma to read it to her.

Cute book. Love the lift the flaps. Has a great message about giving out your information and being careful with who you are talking to on the phone.

This one is fairly cute. But the ending is a little weird. For my hello/goodbye storytime theme I don't think I'll read the last couple pages.
But I might include the "don't use your phone at the table" bit in the future the next time I do a manners storytime.

Corbin loves this story about a boy that is trying to call his grandma, but instead dials the number to sheep, cow, duck, and crocodile. My son loves the phone, so this was a great read for him. The illustrations are sweet too.

An excellent book for storytime or bedtime! The little boy is trying to get call his grandmother on the phone but he keeps calling wrong numbers--instead, he reaches Sheep and Cow. We learn what sounds they make and he tries again. It's really fun and could be interactive and would keep everybody interested in the story. It's not too wordy so it's perfect for pre-k or k students.
