Santat, D. (2017). After the fall: How Humpty Dumpty got back up again. New York:
Roaring Brook Press.
Roaring Brook Press.
Overview: A great book to read after studying the traditional Humpty Dumpty nursery rhyme. Students could create their own what comes next for Humpty as a writing exploration. This book is also a great supplement to STEM learning units. Teaching perseverance and overcoming fears of failure. In the story Humpty Dumpty has his great fall, after the fall he is scared of heights. He misses watching the birds from his favorite place on the wall. He tries to overcome his fear with trying different things. The end has a great twist, I like how his egg hatches and he flies off.
