This story has some subtleties to it that are great. The not so subtle bit is to talk about the word play of hole vs whole. The subtle part is the rabbit that appears on all the pages following the boy around. Once the boy finally decides to discard the hole because it is of no use to him, the rabbit can use it to live in. It could also be great as a story for inferencing. What could some of the people in the story do with that hole? Why do they not want it? What would happen if they did take it?
Goodreads says:
One day Charlie finds a hole. A hole of his very own! He picks it up and pops it in his pocket. But it doesn’t take Charlie long to realize that a hole in your pocket is not a good thing to have.
