We had the best discussion with 1st & 2nd graders reading Another by Christian Robinson! An oldie would be Deep in the Forest -- the reverse of Goldilocks.
I present to my students each year in library time the book, Mr. Wuffles, by David Wiesner. The students (and I) are intrigued by the pictures, the new language created by the aliens, and how the insects and the aliens learn to work together to outsmart Mr. Wuffles. Great read-aloud.
Loved this. I have all those wordless books except Walk With Vanessa, and Tuesday! Another favorite is GOODNIGHT, GORILLA. It is *almost* wordless, but for the words “goodnight, dear.” Also illustrator Bill Thomson has a couple of incredible wordless books: FOSSIL, and CHALK. Thank for this post!!!
I used Tuesday by David Wiesner with my kindergarten classes for the past 22 years. This was our first actual lesson of how to picture read. This enabled them to know how to look at their check out books while I checked others out. Otherwise, I would have had each of them tell me they don't know how to read. We also talk about the different ways to read, as well.

That's wonderful! Wordless picture books are amazing, aren't they? Such a powerful teaching tool.
