Too Much Noise by Ann McGovern

Too Much Noise by Ann McGovern“Too noisy,” said Peter. Peter went to the wise man. “Do as I say. Get a . . .”
Have the children draw the animals. Don’t worry if it looks like scribbles.
Your youngest children can say the sounds of the animals, the names of the animals, older children can repeat the words “too noisy,” while even older children retell the whole story, or as much of it as they can.
