During COVID19 at school we are making students take books from a display, so as to avoid too much touching or rummaging on shelves, so we are making sure there is plenty on display. There would be five or six topics displayed at a time so when the students come tomorrow they will be greeted with a book display for World Milk Day. We were surprised just how much we had, about five books with 'milk' in the title, but when we extended it to cheese and cows there was an abundance.
Here's some milk titles:
• Don't Spill the Milk by Stephen Davies• Milk and Cookies by Frank Asch
• Oliver's Milkshake by Vivian French
• Tea With Milk by Allen Say
• Milk Goes to School by Terry Border
and a chapter book
and some nonfiction books worth looking for
• Journey of a Glass of Milk by John Malam
• From Milk to Ice-Cream by Bridget Heos
• Eat Smart Dairy by Vic Parker
• Dairy by Honor Head
• From Farm to Table: Dairy by Woody Brambles
Lots of fun 'cheese' picture books:
• The Great Cheese Robbery by Tim Warnes
• The World-Famous Cheese Shop Break-In by Sean Taylor and Hannah Shaw
• I Don't Like Cheese by Hannah Chandler• Dinosaurs Love Cheese by Jackie French
• Mack and the Missing Cheese by Chae Strathie
• Cheese Belongs to You by Alexis Deacon
My favourite cow stories:
• Belinda by Pamela Allen
• Kiss the Cow by Phyllis Root
• Myron's Magic Cow by Marlene Newman
• Cow by Malachy Doyle
• Prudence the Part -Time Cow by Jody Jensen Shaffer
• The Cow Who Fell in the Canal by Phyllis Krasilovsky
And if Tony a poem by Ed Galing and Erin Stead is in your library borrow it too. In this story the narrator reminisces about how, when he was a boy , he would go out early each morning and greet Tony, the horse that pulled the milk cart. While on the topic of milk deliveries, I was always fascinated by the 'milk float' that delivers milk in London in the Shirley Hughes' Alfie stories.
