Wow, I had no idea she had written so many books — I guess we need to hit the library! Thanks for sharing this with us at After School!
I didn’t either! I knew about a lot of them, but there were definitely a few sets that I didn’t realize were from Karma Wilson. Great discovery!
This is awesome. We love the “Bear” books in our family. Hoping to make some bear claw cookies this month, to go with Bear Snores On.
Thank you! I can’t wait to make those bear claw cookies either.
This is a wonderful round up for Karma Wilson books! Thanks for sharing with Afterschool!
Wow! This is a great round up. I love the polar bear activities. They’ll be perfect for this winter.
We love doing activities linked to books we recently made a wig inspired by Oliver and the Seawigs
Ooh now that sounds like a fun activity!
Love this resource! I think Karma Wilson is wonderful too. Pinned for future reference.
Thank you!
I love the ideas! PInned it! Thanks for sharing at TGIF!
I can’t wait to read all of the books you’ve recommended with my girls and do the projects this month! Thank you for taking the time to put all of this together for your readers. Can’t wait to see what else is shared on November 11th!
Thanks so much, Kim! It did take a while to pull the ideas together, so it means a TON that you and others are finding it a valuable resource.
Love this author…love the suggestions! Great resource!
Thank you so much!
