Coming Soon - Noisy Bug and Whats in the Garden Ebooks

 

Noisy Bug Sing-Along Noisy Bug Sing-Along
Written & Illust. by John Himmelman
On Sale Now at 25% Off

This wonderful book is natural science—in this case, about desert animals—with a flair. A boy walks up to an impressive saguaro cactus and wonders who could be living on this arid ground? As night falls, he walks away. And then the place comes alive! A haven for creatures in a waterless land. The entertaining, repetitive rhyme is an attention-grabbing read-aloud that culminates in successful learning. Field Notes at the end of the book describe the animals in detail and include an unusual fact.

"I absolutely love this book! John Himmelman captures the essence of the noisy bug clan—crickets, cicadas, click beetles, and more—with stunning artwork and a wonderful "sing along" theme that will engage children and parents alike.Chirp-chirp-chirp, reeee-reeee-reeee, sing like a bug with glee-glee-glee"

Whats in the Garden What's in the Garden?
by Marianne Berkes - illust. Cris Arbo
On Sale Now at 25% Off

Good food doesn't begin on a store shelf with a box. It comes from a garden bursting with life, color, sounds, smells, sunshine, moisture, birds, and bees! Healthy food becomes much more interesting when children know where it comes from. So what's in the garden? Kids will find a variety fruits and vegetables, and a tasty, kid-friendly recipe for each one to start a lifetime of good eating. A food for thought section presents interesting facts about each fruit and vegetable, and a how does your garden grow? section explains facts about gardening and the parts of plants.

"Berkes' latest is a departure from many children's gardening books, combining rhyming verses with recipes celebrating the garden's bounty. . . gorgeously detailed and realistic illustrations, which often feature the flowers, insect pollinators and at least the beginnings of the fruit or vegetable. . . . From the popular ants on a log to the more daring French onion soup, breakfast-y carrot muffins to a dessert of blueberry pie, young chefs are likely to get a wide introduction to both the products of the garden and the culinary arts. . . . A celebration of growing and eating that is just in time for spring planting." Read complete review
