Listen to Michelle Obama read children’s books out loud every Monday. The first book she reads is The Gruffalo, a 1999 book written by Julia Donaldson and illustrated by Axel Scheffler that tells the story of a mouse walking through the woods. She also reads Tom Fletcher’s There’s a Dragon in Your Book, Eliza Wheeler’s Miss Maple’s Seeds and Eric Carle’s 1969 classic The Very Hungry Caterpillar.
Mondays With Michelle Obama is in partnership with Penguin Young Readers, Random House Children’s Books and PBS Kids.
