The Watermelon Seed by Greg Pizzoli

Pizzoli, Greg. The Watermelon Seed. New York: Hyperion Books, 2013.

A crocodile who loves watermelon swallows a seed and begins imagining all of the frightening consequences. A humorous resolution puts an end to his worries...at least for a little while!

This highly enjoyable read-aloud is absolutely perfect for helping students learn to read with expression. It's also a great mentor text for teaching the deliberate use of punctuation cues in writing.
