A Buzzby StorybookPeanut Comes Home for Break

Ages 5 to 8 Kindergarten to 3rd Grade 10 pages Read aloud

The first pages

Snow was falling outside the school in Saskatoon. It was the last day before winter break, and Mila had a very important job. She was taking Peanut, the class hamster, home!

Mrs. Lindqvist gave Mila a list. "Fresh water every day. A spoonful of food. Clean bedding on Saturday." Mila tucked the list into her coat pocket.

What happens next? The rest of the story, every painted page and Buzzby's narration open with a free account.

Talk time questions

  • What did Mila need to do for Peanut each day?
  • Why did Peanut sleep during the day?
  • What would you need to remember if you cared for a pet?
