Summary
Wilfrid Gordon McDonald Partridge by Mem Fox
Wilfrid Gordon McDonald Partridge lives next door to a home for the elderly. He loves visiting the people there, especially Miss Nancy Alison Delacourt Cooper.

The heart and determination of this story are perfect for introductory lessons on identifying author messages. It’s also well-suited for lessons on making predictions, retelling and summarizing, making connections, and synthesizing.
