Little White Rabbit {Book Review and Craftivity}

I was looking for a perfect Easter but not "too Eastery" craft because I am not technically supposed to go crazy for holidays (but I LOVEEE them, so I get creative!).  I found this ADORABLE one from A Cupcake for the Teacher.

Instead of writing about the Easter Bunny, I decided to do do a response to literature to my new favorite Kevin Henkes book.  Each student picked their favorite part of the story, illustrated it and used invented spelling to describe it.  I am head over heels for how these came out!

And my favorites...

I also found this awesome video of Kevin Henkes creating this book.  How precious are his beautiful illustrations?  My kids were absolutely in love with this book... I can't wait to show them this clip of a "real" author-illustrator at work!
