I know we've read this book from the library before but I didn't have it in our Good Reads book shelf, Weird. I wouldn't say this is the most amazon book ever written but the illustrations are cute especially because the dog is a terrier! I had to buy it specifically because the dog looks like our wire fox terriers.
: I really thought this was a cute book, The pages were so colorful and detailed, Myyearold loved it too, This is about a dog who lives by himself, He only has one of everything, He realizes that he wished he had someone to enjoy his things with, He sets out to find someone that will become his friend, The friend was not happy with one of each and said that this would not work for her, So, the dog goes out and buys one more of each so his friend would come back to visit, He realized that having friends was the best thing of all,
Super cute story. My child realized that it is nice to have friends, The more the better he says, picture book. This is also a poetry book, Very repetitive, great for young readers and learning readers, Occasional confusing parts and the flow wasn't perfect, About a dog who realizes sharing with friends is better than having everything only just right for himself, This was a cute book, I like the story This book is full of rhymes which makes it fun to read, This book would be good to use for a sight word lesson because there are a lot of sight words along with pictures, It is colorful and i would reccommend it for Kgrades, A dog used to living by himself has only had a need for one of each thing, But when he goes out looking for someone with whom he can share his home, some accommodations need to be made, Wonderful, simple rhyme scheme would be inviting to young listeners as a readaloud,
Caldecott Award Winning artist, Marjorie Priceman's illustrations are colorful and fun! It is very rare for me to to review a childrens book with five.
This one however totally deserves it, It is so beautiful, colorful, and smart, that I could not stop reading it, I did it with my little brother and he could not stop smiling and cheering for Oliver Tolliver, This book teaches us about the power of connection, about the beauty in sharing, and about how sad it is to be alone, That there is no beauty in being alone, and no romance in not spreading the love that we feel, I highly recommend this book to everyone who wants to have a very smart read, One of Each is great for rhyming, learning friend making skills, and sharing, This book is VERY visually appealing, and it would keep children engaged during a whole group read aloud based on the pictures alone, This is such a cute book, It can be used for a variety of reasons but it is also a fun read, The illustrations are colorful and the cat in the story presents a problem that the student can predict how to solve! It rhymes and of course has a repeated phrase "one of each" that makes the book a tool for phonemic awareness and even fluency.
I would recommend this book! I love this one not too short, lots to find in the illustrations, great rhymes,
Oliver Tolliver lives all alone and has one of everything in his little houseone table, one chair, one apple, and one pear, To him, it's perfect. But when he invites Peggoty Small over to admire his arrangement, he finds she has quite another opinion, She feels his oneofeach house leaves no room for anyone else! Suddenly Oliver sees she's right, and he finds a pair for every single thing in his house.
In the end he realizes that sharing makes room for friends, As only she can, Mary Ann Hoberman deftly crafts a simple, comforting story that speaks to every child's experience, Accompanied by Marjorie Priceman's bold, colorful illustrations, this picture book is destined to become a story time favorite, One of each would be a good book to introduce young students to poetry, There is repetition in that the last word of every two lines rhymes and are also predictable, The pictures are bright and fun and there is a cute story line about having one of each, I had fun reading this book, The rhyme, the pictures and why one of each is important, Then to share with a friend and realize one of each not enough, Great story about sharing.
I was just thinking about this book, I remember being a kid and perusing the children's section of the Denton recycled books and records and picking up this book, It had a dog on it which it probably why I picked it, I was obsessed with dogs and was only reading dog literature, What's crazy to me is I remember distinctly the character having only one of everything, One chair, one cup, one plate, etc, because it just made sense, why should he have more than one when there's only one of him I remember the plot being that his cat friend comes over and she makes him realize the need to have two of everything so he can share and that's the beauty of friendship or whatever, but what's crazy to me is that I think this is where I got the idea that being a "minimalist" was exactly what I wanted to be without knowing that would be a thing years later.
And I carried this idea with me for years! Thinking one day I'll have my own place and I'll just have one chair and one bowl and one spoon.
Anyways I finally found it with a quick google search and just had to document it! Here you go, minimalists, Would recommend. While this book ends with a positive message, myyearold niece asked me if Ms, P was being rude to Oliver about halfway through the book, I initially said, no, she's telling him that there's nowhere for her to sit, And my niece said, "But there's one sofa, She can sit on that, " We flipped back to look, and she was right, It's a small detail, but it did detract a bit from the premise of the book,

This book is focused on the life of a dog named Oliver Tolliver.
Oliver Tolliver lived in a house all alone, and so he only ever had one of everything, One book,
one clock, one chair, one plate, and so on, He really enjoyed only having one of each, One day while he was walking out and about, he met a cat named Peggoty Small, and he invited her over to his house, However, when Peggoty went to Oliver's house, she was upset because he only had one of each, and she left after saying that his house was only made for one person, and no more than that.
When Peggoty left, Oliver realized that this was probably the reason why he never had any friends visit him, and he rushed out and bought more of everything in his house.
When Peggoty came over again, she was thrilled and very happy, and even more of Oliver's friends came over to visit too, This made Oliver very happy, and he didn't want it to be any other way, This book was written in all couplets, so it could be used for a poetry lesson, It could also be used in a counting lesson due to the fact that he had one of everything, and then he bought more, I would like to have this book in a classroom because I think that students would appreciate the story and the fun illustrations of animals being personified.
One of Each is a lovely story about Oliver Tolliver who learns that two is better than onefriends are good things to have, The ever so charming artwork by Marjorie Priceman is imaginative and fun, A great book to read again and again to little ones, . . This book is about a dog who has nothing more of one of everything in his house, When he tries to find a friend to share his house with, he finds that he must make some adjustments if he wants her to stay.
This book would be a good way to talk about the importance of sharing and how to make adjustments when needed, A childhood favorite. Hoberman's lilting text shines here, though I find the message a little bit confusing if you want friends, you must buy things!, いぬのオリバーはふるいふるいいえにたったひとりでくらしていた

上手になったね One of Each by Mary Ann HobermanGreat book to emphasize rhyming and maybe even phonemic awareness, There are words in there that you can focus on based on the beginning phoneme or ending phoneme, Great book to read from grades k, Pictures and story inside are great too! Work with her local Connecticut chapter of the Literacy Volunteers of America inspired her to create this series of books to encourage reading.
She enjoys reading with her grandchildren, .
