Know when to talk
A wonderful read-aloud about a dog who learns to talk after eating alphabet soup. With her new gift, Martha talks too much and says things that shouldn't be said. Her family gets angry with her and she stops talking, but eventually learns when to talk and when to hold her tongue. Martha Speaks is a funny story with a message many kids can learn from.
