There is a Bird on Your Head, by: Mo Willems

There is a Bird on Your Head is a picture book written by Mo Willems.  It is a book with great illustrations and it is written almost like a comic book because the text is written in speech bubbles.  The book is about an elephant and a pig and the elephant has birds on his head.  The whole book is dialogue between the two characters.  Mi Willems is a great author,

There is a Bird on Your Head is a great book to use when teaching students about point of view.  With the different speech bubbles you can point out which character is saying and feeling what.  Teachers can point this out and use it as an example for students.  If I were to use this book in my classroom I would have students draw two characters with speech bubbles and have them write a different point of view for each character.  This would be a great activity for students to be able to be engaged and practice point of view.
