This resource is perfect for a book study for individual students, literature circle or a class read on Katherine Applegate's Willodeen. It contains whole book activities including quizzes. *Includes chapter vocabulary and discussion questions.

This book is a perfect fantasy fiction story of a girl who has a unique love for all creatures. She learns the importance of friendship and perseverance. The author does a wonderful job of emphasizing nature and how each creature helps to balance our Earth.

This resource could be easily used by the teacher as a class-wide read by reading the vocabulary and discussion questions. Students could answer the questions in discussion format or write responses down in a reading journal. Teacher could also print the questions with the open-ended answers and have students glue them into a notebook. Teachers could also print all of the open-ended questions for each chapter and make a booklet for students to walk through in a literature circle or independent study.

Chapter questions can be printed in half sheets or full sheets. Since the chapters are short, I have created the vocabulary and question sets for each 2 chapters.

Themes: Friendship, Family, Perserverance, Nature, Balance
