Topic:    A llama has to go shopping with his mama.  He doesn't like to shop and even throws a fit at the store.  He learns mama doesn't like shopping either, but together they can get it done.

Grades: All      

Comments: This is a great story.   The kids could relate to the llama's feelings and many had never thought about it from the mama's point of view.  They enjoyed it.  It is a rhyming book. The illustrations are wonderful.
