The innovative teaching materials contained in this box have been
designed and created following the principles of the Montessori
method. They have been designed to be used by children on their
own; no help is required from the adult who can simply observe
their child as they enthusiastically discover the world. Thanks to
the fun and enjoyable activities proposed, play becomes an
educational moment for your children whose curiosity will inspire
them to start building up experiences for the future. This box
holds an active nature experience for children. The materials are
inspired by the animal kingdom, the insect world as well as that of
plants. Through various types of games, children can get to know
the "inhabitants" of the garden, learning to spot the tails, paws,
antennae and wings of the largest animal to the smallest insect,
and even become the perfect little gardener, recognizing plants by
their leaves, flowers and fruits. They will also be encouraged to
create their own little garden thanks to the cards on the life
cycle of a plant which will teach them how plants are born and what
they need to grow. They will also be able to build their own small
trees to show off on their desks and change along with the seasons.
Charming visuals and die-cut pages that change shape following the
narrative will delight readers of all ages and deliver a topical,
timely message about saving and preserving the Earth

Storm! Storm! Rain raps the window, wind rattles the door.
"Let's look for storm dragons," says Grandpa. "Watch out, dragons.
We're coming!"
Off they go, Grandpa and grandchild, down to the beach for a wild and
wonderful adventure ... They find dragon footprints, dragon jewels, and
even a dragon baby, but what will happen when they find the REAL Storm
Dragon?
Wild has been on the run -- jumping from one family to the next --
ever since she left Chance almost a year ago. But when a mysterious
canine corporation, C.A.T., abducts her and threatens to hurt
Chance, she will stop at nothing to escape and find her old friend.
Together again, Wild and Chance must enlist the help of Junebug to
hack into C.A.T.'s computer to discover what they really want. But
along the way, the group is reunited with an old friend and
introduced to the Puppio puppies -- love-at-first-sight cute, with
massive eyes, who smell like apple pie. Even though they may look
cute on the outside, Wild is convinced everything isn't as it
seems. When she finds out a shocking discovery about her past, Wild
must decide who is more important to protect -- her past, her best
friend, or the greater Los Angeles area who are in incredible
Puppio danger. Equal parts heart-pounding action and heartfelt
journey, this second book in the Wild & Chance series grabs
readers from page one and never lets go.
