But he can't just call her, he has to *mail* an invitation.Naturally, she almost sees, and he sorta snaps at her. Ezra Jack Keats was really good at writing books about every day experiences.Peter in this book wants to invite - gasp - a *girl* to his birthday party. Amy. Luckily, Amy doesn't hold a grudge, everybody's happy at the end.It seems like so little, but this sort of thing - a special occasion, a fight with a friend - is very big to children. This book really captures a typical reaction to these events.
loves this book along with Peter's Chair. Great book. My almost [.]. The pictures are beautiful and the story relatable to little ones. We plan on getting more Peter books.
This book in the Ezra Jack Keats series is wonderful. I am relatively new to this author but have fallen for all the books that my 3 year old and I have read so far. It is wonderfully illustrated and the simple text makes it a winner. A great addition to any childs library and a series that merits collecting.
The story is great. He writes a letter to Amy, and tries to mail it.This book has the same illustration style as Whistle for Willie.
I brought home _A Letter To Amy_ from the library to let him have a look. My two year old loves Whistle for Willie, and Goggles, both by Ezra Jack Keats.
Peter is worried that the boys at his party won't like Amy because she's a girl. _A Letter To Amy_ is the story of Peter, who has an upcoming birthday.
He wants to invite Amy with a letter, because she's a special friend. very patchy, abstract, and easy to enjoy.
I know that older kids love Ezra Jack Keats' picture books-- and I'm telling you my 2 year old does, too.He calls this book AMY BOOK, and we read it over and over again.ken32
I could use it for a mini-lesson on how to write invitations and addressing envelopes. The boys didn't like it because a girl was at the party.
He writes a special letter to Amy to invite her to the party. The other guests will be boys so he just asked them.
This is a story of Peter who is having a birthday. The day for the party came and finally Amy arrived.
As Peter went out to mail his letter Amy almost saw. He was not nice to her and thought see might not come to his party.
I thought this book would be a wonderful story to read in my first grade classroom. Also, it could be used to promote friendships between boys and girls.
