THE YAWN BOOK

Page history last edited by RichiesPicks 1 year, 3 months ago

27 December 2022 THE YAWN BOOK by Diana Kim, Clarion, November 2022, 32p., ISBN: 978-0-35-852593-6

 

“I gotta yawn, yawn, yawn my sleepies out

And wiggle my waggles away”

– Raffi (1977)

 

“The amount that children yawn increases as they learn how to read and write. Elementary school-age kids yawn five times more than kindergarten-age kids.”

 

THE YAWN BOOK is a fun, fact-filled piece of illustrated nonfiction. It will work especially well in middle grade classroom libraries, where you want plenty of high interest, read-it-in-one-gulp kind of nonfiction. The yawn-related facts are interesting and it’s a topic to which anyone can (yawn) relate.

 

“What we know for sure is that yawning is contagious! People can ‘catch’ a yawn just by hearing someone else do it. Or even by reading about it!

Are you yawning now?”

 

An extensive list of sources is included.
