Rating details 288 ratings 54 reviews Mortimer Henryson loves Plantzilla, the plant he's been taking care of all year in his third-grade classroom. The last letter is written by the plant, and the words are not spelled correctly. It should bring good retellings from students because it has a smooth flowing storyline.Īs far as getting deep into literacy, there is a varying level of vocabulary in the book so it will accommodate different levels of readers. This book is also a good opportunity to discuss dialogue and conversation. ![]() Due to the influx of technology, letter writing is really not taught as much in the classroom. This book is a great opportunity to teach letter writing in the classroom, as well as formal correspondence. I love that the writing matches the characters. The writing of the letters change depending upon who is writing. SUPER story and FABULOUS llustrations My 5 year old Grandson, Dexter and I LOVE Mortimer and we LOVE this book I am not exaggerating when I say that we have read Plantzilla Goes to Camp over 100 times. There are three rotating characters:child, teacher, and parents. This book is wonderful! I wish it came out when I was a child! The greatest thing is that the book is written entirely in corresponding letters. ![]()
