This is a true story of a dog and family, taking it through good
times and bad times taken from the Diary of the Author and his
memories of a special dog that he loved.A dog that suffered
greatly, thinking she had been left behind in a place she didn't
know, while the family suffered with the fear that they would never
find the dog they had loved and cherished for so long. The Author,
Lynn Ritthaler can only write about the things that he has lived
through and is sentimental to him. He is also the Author of a true
story titled "THRICE SHE DIED" that he was a part of.
Nature has an important role in Montessorian pedagogy. According to
Maria Montessori, taking care of animals and plants is highly
satisfying for the child: knowing that someone needs him/her and
that his/her work gives rise to life is a great incentive for
his/her sense of responsibility, but also for his/her emotional
development, and ability to imagine and control the actions and
emotions that are part of the world of childhood. The activities in
this book are intended for children from 2 to 10 years, with the
aim of recovering the natural bond between the child and the world
of nature. They are subdivided into 4 areas, according to what
Maria Montessori observed to be the most important aspects in the
child's relationship with nature. The activities are designed
partly for the home, but are always inspired, where possible, by
experience in the open air, in the garden, in the vegetable garden,
in the alley behind the home, or in the playground.
With 5 fun surprises, your baby will love the bright photographs and pop-out characters, perfect for reading aloud, learning first words, and encouraging early word recognition.
