Howard B. Wigglebottom


Something I am revisiting this year in school are the FABULOUS stories and lessons from one 

Mr Howard B. Wigglebottom! 

If you are not familiar with Howard - you should be!




Howard is a character any child can relate to. Adult readers will find themselves referring back to him regularly in the course of a day; some will, remember what Howard B. Wigglebottom learned about paying attention! --Committee for Children

This is a great story to teach our kids that it s okay to be different; that they are perfect just the way they are. --Attitude Magazine

This timeless story will help teach self-esteem and self-concept issues to many children. It is a sweet tale about being true to yourself and doing what makes you happy. --National Association of Elementary School Principals

About the Author

After we read the book (about listening) the ONLY child who sat quietly and listened was MOLLY and she was rewarded with TWO warm gooey cookies - the other two only received ONE.  They were not happy about that - I did not tell them a reward would be given to those who listened....maybe they will next time 8)




There is a SALE going on right now HUGE savings over at Wedolisten.org...all the books are on sale!  These are very nice hard cover books that are great for your home school!  In addition, they have coordinating posters you can print off for FREE and other lesson plans.  I love Howard and am happy he is joining us this year in school!

Are you familiar with these books?  Would love your reviews!

Sounds like a great book! Even though 2 of my kids are older, we still like reading picture books. The stories and illustrations can be so meaningful and beautiful! And cookies are always a nice treat! LOL Thanks for stopping by!
