Tikki Tikki Tembo retold by Arlene Mosel/ illustrated by Blair Lent

The children and I read this classic novel, Tikki Tikki Tembo retold by Arlene Mosel and illustrated by Blair Lent. It was one of the few books I remember my school librarian reading to my third grade class so it has always been a favorite of mine. The children seemed to like listening to the book. It kept them engaged and they were excited to hear the story.
