Robert Munsch When we were invited to join the Canadian Author Project, we picked our favourite author, Bob Munsch. Why is he our favourite author at St. Benedict School? Wellll....he made one of his surprise visits to our school in 2001. Mrs. Hansen was so shocked that when Robert Munsch introduced himself, she just stood there speechless. Luckily, she did recover and invited him into the grade two classroom. He shared some of his stories, made up a story about the class, answered questions, autographed one of his books, and finally posed with the class before leaving for Jasper. Will he ever return? This is the question students ask every year since that day in May when HE came to visit!

As a response to the story, each student wrote a poem or illustrated a character in the book. Click on a book to go to the student responses. More Munsch Books As a follow-up to our literacy work, we made A Bunch of Munsch Quilt featuring our favourite characters. Click on the quilting button to see our quilt! Our culminating activity was to write a letter to Bob Munsch. Click on the dragon to see our letters.
