If you Give a Mouse a Cookie by Laura Numeroff
These books are so popular, most people have heard of them, if not read them for themselves. We own 6 of them (which actually puts me at 101 books :)): If You Give a Mouse a Cookie, If You Give a Pig a Pancake, If You Give a Pig a Party, If You Take a Mouse to the Movies, If You Give a Moose a Muffin, and, my personal favorite, If You Give a Cat a Cupcake. There are more of these books, but I'm only listing the titles I've recently read.
The books are very simple and cute. They are easy for young readers to follow and a wonderful way to teach prediction in the classroom. They would also be a great way to teach beginning, middle, and end to young readers. All of the plots are straightforward, relate-able, and funny. Kids seem to eat these up!
