Is ZOG an appropiate book?

ZOG is a great book to use with five-four year old students.

The topic includes magical characters as dragons and princesses, things that will help to keep the kids focused on the plot. The story also is good in order to motivate the kids, to help them to develop positive behaviors, imitating character’s attitudes during the story.

It’s a good book to use storytelling because the pictures are good enough to help the students to follow the story looking to them. The structures are simple and there are no long descriptive paragraphs, and even though vocabulary is a bit difficult, the teacher can change difficult words and the children can follow the story easily thanks also to the pictures that, as we said before, are very descriptive.

After listen it a few times in class. It can be given to the kids in order to let them read the story by their own, discovering the vocabulary that the teacher has changed during the storytelling, the repeated structures and the rhymes.
