Top Of the Mornin’ To You! Need some ideas for St. Patrick’s Day read-alouds or resources? Hopefully these ideas can help you. First, a collage of St. Patrick’s Day books that you could read aloud to your class or children, take out of the library, buy, or borrow! Click on the title of each book below the collage to go to Amazon and get more details. I also will post a tidbit or two about each book on my Facebook page.
