Here's the correct solution for each question, based on predicting outcomes from the book covers and titles:
---
1. *Llama Llama Time to Share* by Anna Dewdney
-
Correct choice: ✔ a llama who loves to share his toys
>
Explanation: The title explicitly says “Time to Share,” and the cover shows a llama (the main character) with another animal holding toys. This strongly suggests the story is about sharing — likely the llama learning or practicing how to share his toys. The other option mentions a goat, but the goat is not the focus; it’s the llama on the cover and in the title.

2. *Fox in Socks* by Dr. Seuss
-
Correct choice: ✔ a fox who wears socks
>
Explanation: The title is literally “Fox in Socks.” The illustration also clearly shows a red fox wearing blue socks. Dr. Seuss’s *Book of Tongue Twisters* is known for playful language and silly scenarios — so a fox wearing socks fits perfectly. The other option (“wears shoes”) contradicts the title and image.

3. *If You Give a Mouse a Cookie* by Laura Numeroff
-
Correct choice: ✔ you give a mouse a cookie
>
Explanation: The title is a direct conditional statement: “If you give a mouse a cookie…” The cover reinforces this with an image of a mouse holding a cookie and the title written on a sign. The story follows the chain of events that happen *if* you give a mouse a cookie — so this is the correct prediction. The cake is not mentioned in the title or shown as the central item.

4. *The Bear Who Wanted to Fly* by Carol Shaver
-
Correct choice: ✔ the bear who wants to fly
>
Explanation: The title clearly states “The Bear Who Wanted to Fly.” The cover art shows a bear looking up at birds flying, reinforcing the theme of wanting to fly. The other option (“wants to swim”) is not supported by the title or imagery — there’s no indication of swimming.

✔ Final Answers:
1. a llama who loves to share his toys
2. a fox who wears socks
3. you give a mouse a cookie
4. the bear who wants to fly
