Teaching Tip

Fascination Boxes: Jan Brett, like many authors, writes about the things that fascinate her, including hens, hedgehogs, and trolls. Ask students to fill a shoe box with pictures of things or objects that fascinate them. Let them take turns sharing the items with classmates. Encourage them to use their fascination boxes for inspiration in their writing!
