The Tater Tot Experience
Here we go! Simply click on the 'movie' you'd like to watch.
It's like having six Author Visits at your fingertips, only better!
YOU decide when to watch them and how best to discuss the lessons contained in each episode. The Author merely lays the groundwork.
Have fun!
Each of the six picture books below highlight Craft and Structure, Poetry and Author's Purpose. They also lend positive examples of Social and Emotional Development. However, each book/video also features its own, unique lesson (listed below).

A fun, but carefully designed discussion by the Author will have the kids
gleefully anticipating certain features in every lesson, such as:
LESSON FEATURES!
*Introduction
*The Word of the Day
*Why the Book was Written
*Book Reading by the Author

We at The Young Authors hope that this site serves the Tater Tots well
and gives teachers opportunity for class discussion, laughter
and of course...to pass on a love of writing.
