The pencil and the eraser in Perfect by Max Amato have very different understandings of what it means to be perfect. But when they work together, they find that they have more in common than meets the eye!

Download this free printable Venn diagram activity so your students can practice comparing and contrasting character traits with text-based evidence.

A Note from Judy

Making new friends can be as easy as sharing a cookie! The Book of the Week–If You Give a Mouse a Cookie by Laura Numeroff, illustrated by Felicia Bond—shows all the possibilities of befriending a mouse that overstays its welcome.

This week, have fun guessing what the Book Boys will ask for next; watch an exclusive interview with the book’s author, Laura Numeroff, in Behind the Scenes; learn how a teacher uses If You Give a Mouse a Cookie to engage her students in Book Talks; and download a free sequencing activity in this week’s Cooked Up from a Book!

We hope this tale of a boy and a mouse will make your students laugh and learn about the importance of setting boundaries and sharing.
