So this morning I was watching "Nemo." I love the quote Dori says towards the end when she is begging Nemo's dad to not leave her because she remembers things better when he is with her. That made me think about some my favorite quotes from children books I have read in the past. Often times I will be reading aloud to my class and find a good quote in a book. So, here are a list of my favorite quotes in children books. What are some of yours?
Every action, reader, no matter how small, has a consequence. -A Tale of Despereaux, Kate DiCamillo
I assure you that you can pick up more information when you are listening than when you are talking. -Trumpet of the Swan, E.B. White
Honey is sweet, and so is knowledge, but knowledge is like the bee that made that sweet honey, you have to chase it through the pages of a book. -Thank You, Mr. Falker; Patricia Polacco
Think left and think right and think low and think high. Oh the things you can think up if you only try! -Dr. Seuss
Tbere are no small parts-only small actors. -The Best/Worst Christmas Pageant Ever; Barbara Robinson
It is not often that someone comes along who is a true friend and a good writer. -Charlotte's Web, E.B. White
I am sure there are so many more quotes that I treasure but these are the ones that I thought of off the top of my head. What are yours? I would love to know!
