sarahthigpen | 8 altre recensioni | Sep 21, 2016 | A multicultural book for children, Lynn Moroney does a fantastic job in retelling a tale from the Chickasaw Tribe in providing a lesson in the value of self-control for all young readers to relate to. Baby Rattlesnake is about a little rattlesnake that cries and cries for a rattle as big as his brother and sister. He is informed by his parents that he is still too young. But this did not keep baby rattlesnake from crying. And his crying kept the Rattlesnake People up all night. Eventually the parents gave in. Excited with his new gift, he mischievously uses his rattle to scare any little animal that comes his way. He continues this trend until one day he scares the wrong animal. This is a great book for children.… (altro)

romeo14v | 8 altre recensioni | Oct 27, 2013 | Baby Rattlesnake longs for a rattle in this retelling of a Native American folktale, refusing to be comforted by the assurances of his parents, his siblings, and the Rattlesnake People that he will grow into one. Finally, fed up with his constant crying, his people give him what he wants, but his irresponsible use of the rattle leads to disaster...
Based upon an oral telling of this tale done by Chickasaw actress and storyteller rel="nofollow" target="_top">Te Ata, Lynn Moroney's adaptation is a cautionary tale about the dangers of possessing abilities for which one is not ready. The illustrations by Veg Reisberg are colorful, and rather cartoon-like. A brief but entertaining little book, perfect for young readers with an interest in Native American folklore, although I do wish that the specific origin of the tale had been discussed - should I assume it is Chickasaw, because Ata was?… (altro)

AbigailAdams26 | 8 altre recensioni | Apr 10, 2013 | A sweet little book. Baby rattlesnake wants a rattle like his older brother and sister (and parents) but is told he's too young. After a long period of crying and keeping the other rattlesnakes awake, they decide to give him the rattle even though he's not ready for it. He's taken with the rattle, but moreso with scaring the other animals in the desert. But he goes too far when he decides to scare the human chief's daughter...
I found this book in the used bookstore near my house, strangely after a week where I dreamt 3-4 nights out of 7 about rattlesnakes. When I saw this on the shelf, I took the hint and snatched up the book quickly. Very pleased I did.… (altro)

I liked the book because it teaches us the importance of patience.
Tell students about Te Ata and Folk Literature. After reading p. 6, ask students if they have ever been told that they were too young to have something. After reading p. 18, ask students why Baby Rattlesnake would not listen to what his parents were telling him. At the end of the book, discuss the importance of patients and obeying your parents.
Have students retell the story and determine the lesson of the story. Describe how Baby Rattlesnake responded when his rattle got stomped. Have students write their opinion about the book and supply reasons to support their opinion.… (altro)
