This book is absolutely hilarious. It has two books that comes after it that basically talk about the same thing. I love this book because students think it is terribly funny. The illustrations are amazing and really make the story even better. This whole book is about a little boy who hears common phrases but takes them way too literally. These books would be great to pair with a lesson on figurative language. I would use this in a 2nd or 3rd grade classroom because younger students probably would not understand the play on words.
