Gaston by Kelly DiPucchio


If you are introducing theme to your students, I recommend Gaston by Kelly DiPucchio. Theme is the life lesson a reader can learn from the story.  A bull dog is raised by poodles.  When they meet a family of poodles at the park, the two families wonder if their puppies were switched at birth.

This book illustrates the idea that family is where you belong.  I created a worksheet for students to find events in the story that illustrate the theme.  To download the theme worksheet, please click here.
