Title:  Suddenly Alligator
Author:  Rick Walton
Age: k-3
Topic:  Adverbs
Comments:  It was so fun to read this book to all the wee ones.  After reading the book I had one of them stand up and jump and said she jumped "Enthusiastically",which is an adverb.  Then I had one stand up and touch her head.  I told the class she was touching her head "gently".  Then I had one twirl and ask the class to pick a word ending in "ly" that described how she was twirling.  They said, quickly... an adverb.  All the kids seem to enjoy the story and the funny voices I used on each page.
