Is Your Mama a Llama?


Guarino, D. (1989). Is Your Mama a Llama? Illus. S. Kellogg. New York, NY: Scholastic Inc.

Brief Annotation: Lloyd the llama is on a quest to discover which animals have llamas for mothers. His conversations turn to riddles as he learns which animals are the mothers of his friends.

Genre: Picturebook, verse

Grade Level: K-2

Readers who will like this: children who enjoy rhyming books, readers who like riddles, students who like books about animals.

Response/Rating (1-4): *** Hearing this book read aloud on CD was a great way to enjoy the riddles included in this book. The young children that I read this with had fun trying to solve the riddles before the reader on the CD revealed the answer.

One question you would ask before a read aloud: What is a llama?
