[LM_NET] Target: Wordless and other Picture Books with Problem/Solution

[Anna McGuire <mcguire.a@SBCGLOBAL.NET>]

Our reading recovery teacher is looking for picture books with a  
specific pattern - and I was hoping you might know of some!

These should be wordless or picture books where the illustrations  
clearly show the story (so they can be "read" by non-readers).

They follow the pattern of:

Initiating Event
Problem
Solution
Resolution/Ending

An example that she gave me (and thinks is perfect) is Tomie de  
Paola's Pancakes for Breakfast. This story shows a woman going to make  
pancakes (the initiating event) and there is no sugar (problem), she  
gets the sugar (solution) and there is another missing ingredient -  
the problem/solution pattern is repeated (my teacher wants this  
repetition of a problem/solution pattern to happen no more than 4  
times) until the resolution is that she eats pancakes at her  
neighbor's house.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!
