Good book for slightly older children. Good book to read in the classroom or in small groups and do an activity on.

A young girl and her parents take a trip to the beach. Soon she gets lost in her imagination and is making up all of these scenarios while her mother and father try to get her attention. One side shows reality and the other is Shirley's imagination - completely ignoring reality. I think this book would be great for students of a first grade or younger level because they would be able to relate to it a lot more. ( )

Come Away From the Water, Shirley is a good imagination book. I think this book would be good for children because they get learn about imagination. This book is an elementary reading level. ( )

shirley is tired of being told what to do by her parents, so she imagine what would happen if she disobeyed ( )

This book is about a young girl and her grandfather going to the beach. She is playing by the water imaging all these different things. This would be a good 1st grade book to talk about fantasy and whats real. ( )
