Owning a pet, training a pet, and understanding the behavior of beagles or terriers would enrich student’s understanding of the story. Children with pets, and especially those who have attempted to train a pet, will immediately make connections to familiar experiences. Victoria Coe develops Fenway’s perspective delightfully and readers will respond with amusement. How could this book help students develop a deeper understanding of themselves, each other, and their world? What kinds of thinking skills could this book promote? What kinds of activities will deepen student’s growth as literate individuals? Victoria Coe, you captured the mind of a puzzled dog in a way that made me chuckle! I see and understand Fenway perfectly as he experiences the world.Īs I read, I reflected on how to use this book in my program this fall. What a delightful, humorous tale told from a dog’s point of view. One rainy Saturday in April, a day much like today, I read Fenway and Hattie by Victoria Coe in anticipation of the Global Read Aloud this fall. ![]()
