In the witty, rhyming style of Dr. Seuss, this movie tells the story of Molly McGrew, the woman who drove her bookmobile into the zoo. Before she knows it, animals of all kinds are devouring books (some of them literally!). Molly finds books in Chinese for the pandas, joke books for the hyenas, and waterproof books for the otters. As the animals become even more voracious readers, they begin writing as well. Insects write haikus, the cheetah writes a novel, and the hippo writes a prize-winning memoir. Suddenly, the zoo and the animals are happier and quieter, thanks to their new love of reading.
This video can help to support Grade 3 ELA Module 1, Unit 2 in which students explore the power of reading.
