Helen Oxenbury, (August 1, 1994). It’s my birthday. Candlewick
ISBN 9780763649708
This sweetie and warm story is about a boy who is going to make a cake on his birthday party. However, he doesn’t have enough materials. Then, his friend chicken brings some eggs to him, bear brings some flour, cat brings some butter and milk, pig brings a pinch of salt, dog brings some sugar, and the monkey gets some cherries. Finally, they make and eat the cake together.
This is a great story to show sharing, and do the work together.
Presentations:
  1. Ask one child to hold a birthday party, and more children to pretend as animals to bring different kinds of food.
  2. Make a finger play, and have the boy on one side and each of animals on the other hand. Talk to each other when they meet.
  3. Make boy puppet and play with the felt board, attach the animals on the feltboard when they come.  
Provocations:
A feltboard with blank is great. Then attach the eggs, flour, butter and milk etc. on it as me go alone.  
Extentions: 
  1. Hold a simulative birthday party, and try to inviting friends.
  2. Sing birthday song together.
  3. Learn to make simple cake together.
