Accompanying the storybook is an educator's guide featuring lesson plans, extension ideas, vocabulary words, and reproducible worksheets for teaching the inquiry process. The lessons are all coordinated to AASL information literacy standards and national content area standards in language arts and science, and are designed to be used collaboratively by the classroom teacher and teacher librarian.
