Week 12 PBID Question

I promised a first grade class a tough question, and maybe this one qualifies. (I'll check with them this week to see if it's a hard question or not.) But who knows? Maybe they will think it's easy! (And maybe you will too!)

This is the first week with more than one image. While all five images are from different books, all of them are related. How? Well, that's up to you. On to the question!






These pictures are all from books in the same series.
What is the name of that series of picture books?

Week 11 PBID Answer


*Note to teachers: Sometimes I'm not able to upload these videos until I get to school on Monday morning, so if you signed up to receive email notifications, you won't be notified of a new video until Tuesday morning. But you can always come straight to the website and find the videos. They are usually published by 9:00 or 9:15 on Monday morning. Thanks! - Mr. W.

Week 11 PBID Question

It's Thanksgiving week which means there are fewer school days to look for books and try to find answers, so I decided to keep it straight forward for week 11. If you recognize this little bird, you'll probably know the answer to the question. Good luck!


What is the little bird asking the dog?

Week 10 PBID Answer

Week 10 PBID Question

Last week many of you recognized the style of the illustration before you knew the answer. That's awesome! Maybe you thought, "That sort of looks like Buzz from Fly Guy, but Mr. W. said it wasn't Buzz. Who wrote the Fly Guy books? What other books has he written?" And that sent you on a search for other books by Tedd Arnold so you could find the answer.

Maybe you will do the same for this week's image. This illustrator's work is very distinctive. Matter of fact, there are several of this person's illustrations hanging in my office right now!

On to the question!

This girl is a big fan of her brother's work. What is her brother's name?

Week 9 PBID Question

Okay, okay, I think this question might be a tough one. (I think it might be hard, but you guys surprise me every week!) Just in case, I'm going to give everyone a clue right away. Ready? Here is your clue:

This picture is not Buzz. 

Does that help or only make it more confusing? Good luck!


Why did this boy use all that tape on himself?
