Picture Book Part 11 includes the illustrated story, gesture, and song for The Thick Thorny Thing, The White Whistling Whale, and Ping Pong. Each of the 45 Animated Literacy Stories includes the 5 critical elements of a complete story (characters, setting, problems, actions to resolve problems, and feelings of success or failure). Because the stories are complete stories, they are ideal for retelling and sequence activities while also developing vocabulary and listening comprehension along with phonological awareness and phonics.
