Reason for Reading: My son read aloud to me. I chose this book
because I wanted something he could read in one sitting this
day.
Comments: Elephant has the hiccups and his friends each tell him a
sure fire way to get rid of them. He tries each way and none of
them work until Mouse's suggestion. But with the hiccups gone, the
book ends with a surprise twist. Honestly, I didn't expect much
from this book but was pleasantly surprised with the fun time we
had reading it. At this reading level, the book is well written,
engaging and funny. Ds particularly found one scene hilarious and
he had me read it in unison with him three times before we
continued on with the story. The ending is funny and I recommend it
to beginning readers.
