This is a cute story on one ideas of Why Mosquitoes Buzz in People’s Ears. The story starts when Mosquito tells a tall tale to Iguana who doesn’t like what he hears so he plugs his ears… this in turn sets off a chain reaction between many jungle animals that results in a jungle disaster – all because of a misunderstanding!
I like this story because it gives the reader one persons (the authors) idea of why mosquitoes buzz people’s ears. Maybe the reader can come up with their own ideas on why mosquitoes buzz in ears… and write their own story. I also like this story because it brings us into talking about tall tales. Telling tall tales may have repercussions. As in this story, when people assume they may cause more harm. I really enjoy reading tall tales and think doing a unit on tall tales is a great idea. I would definitely use this book in my classroom for a tall tales unit or just a fun read.
