Subject: After Humpty Dumpty has his fables fall, he gains the courage to climb again
This was recommended by another student, and I'm sure they've logged it as well, but it was too fun to pass up. This story is so much more than a silly look at Humpty and his "great fall." This story is all about finding the courage to get up and go again after you've failed. Horowitz's illustrations are simple but fun, and they definitely help the story flow. This would be a fun one to read to younger kids or allow those beginning out to read for themselves. It might fit well in a unit designed to look at fractured fairy tales or something similar.
