Preschool
and Kindergarten
The epic tale of the classic game Rock, Paper,
Scissors.
You’ve played the game. Now read the legend of how it
all began…
I found this book at Barnes and Nobles and it is just
hilarious. It might not be as hilarious as ‘Walter
the Farting Dog’ but just as amusing. I definitely recommend this book for
story time at elementary schools. I still don’t get how Paper beats Rock but
whatever.
Since this is my blog and I can talk about whatever I
want I decided to take the opportunity to introduce you to a difference version
of Rock, Paper, Scissors. It’s called…
Rock, Paper, Scissors, Lizard, Spock
This is a version of the tradition game created by some
guy on the Internet and talked about on The
Big Bang Theory.
Here are the rules:
Scissors cuts Paper
Paper covers Rock
Rock crushes Lizard
Lizard poisons Spock
Spock smashes Scissors
Scissors decapitates Lizard
Lizard eats Paper
Paper disproves Spock
Spock vaporizes Rock
…And as it always has Rock crushes Scissors
Now I would like to
sidetrack to talk about something important. While on YouTube, I found a boy
named Ethan who has leukemia who does a book vlog. He has a video that explains
what he’s doing so below is a link to his YouTube channel and his website:
In a nutshell, Ethan wants to
build a SUPER library at the CHOC hospital so all the kids at the hospital will
have books to read. He also wants to start a read-aloud program in patient
rooms and common spaces where kids spend time.
I immediately like this kid
because he’s a fellow book lover like me. I read a lot of books when I was
younger but not as many as this kid. I’m watching all of his book reviews and
there are 366 of them. I’m hoping to review as many books as he has but it
might take awhile since I only update my blog every Saturday and in 2016 Ethan
reviewed a different book every day for his Daily Book Look Challenge. The
books Ethan reviews are books that he hopes to get donated to his hospital
library.
After learning about Ethan
and Choco’s Book Club (ECBC) I decided to donate to the CHOC hospital library. It’s
not hard to do. They’ve created a Wish List on Amazon where books can be
purchased, donated, and sent directly to ECBC. See link below:
And since this book is on
Ethan’s Wish List I’m donating this one. I’m hoping to donate more in the
future but it’s hard to decide which books because there are hundreds of books
on his Wish List. Anyone reading this, please consider donating to this
wonderful cause.
