Reading is enough, always! But if you want to do more with a newfound or familiar favorite, here are some ideas.
Ideas for Parents and Caregivers
- Go to the zoo and see real penguins. Maybe even try draw them from Sima’s art and then the real penguins (or a photo of a penguin)
- Read a huge collection of her stories and pick your favorites.

- Read some alternative fairy tales, like SNOW PONY, and then write your own. (Here’s a whole booklist full of them)
Ideas for Librarians
- Include HARRIET GETS CARRIED AWAY in a father’s day storytime and make cards for the Dads in their lives afterwards.
