Mighty Oaks believes a love for reading is part of what it means to be a life-long learner. As Confucius said, “you cannot open a book without learning something.” Each month we recommend a book based on our fruit of the spirit of the month. This fruit of the spirit is "goodness" and we recommend "Can I play too?".
This brilliant masterpiece, written by Mo Willems, involves the famous Elephant & Piggie. This story teaches children a valuable lesson in friendship and how to understand differences, accept shortcomings, and stick up for friends.

The story begins with Gerald and Piggie meeting a new snake friend who wants to join in a game of catch. Simple gestures and facial expressions convey Elephant's embarrassment at Snake's inability to catch a ball. But don't you need arms to catch? This awkward moment resolves with the three friends trying to play catch, with predictable results.

Can I play too? provides much-needed guidance to kids who are navigating the etiquette minefield of friendship among peers of differing abilities.

Mo Willems’ Geisel Award-winning duo never fails to tickle readers of all ages. Like previous Elephant & Piggie books, this adventure has been vetted by an early learning specialist and emerging learners themselves. It turns reading into play!
