Have you heard about the Rabbit and the very hungry Fox? For
generations, this endearing old world mnemonic* was passed from
father to son by word of mouth only. Now, this clever memory jogger
has been revived as "Learn To Tie A Tie With The Rabbit and the
Fox," a cute, beautifully illustrated story with a lively
instructional song. This story book offers a fun and simple lesson
for tying a "school boy knot" in a tie. It is a family activity
book meant to make it fun for parents to teach their children the
most popular method for tying a tie. It is so easy, in fact, that a
very young child can quickly master it. Just grab a tie for each
person to follow along with the story and the step by step
illustrations. Soon, everyone will be have a perfectly tied
necktie. Then, try singing the song as you practice your new skill.
You won't be able to forget the skill or the song If you are young
at heart, you will be rooting for the little rabbit to escape the
snapping jaws of the very hungry fox as they race through the
forest mimicking the motions of tying a tie. After reading about
the rabbit's flight from the fox, you will never again be at a loss
as to how to tie this elegant knot, also known as the "four in
hand." *Mnemonic - The art of memorizing something by associating
it with words, phrases or sentences which have been especially
designed to help you REMEMBER.
This Book Thinks You're an Artist is one of the rare books on the
market to combine art history with practical activities on the
page. It asks the reader to imagine their eccentric-artist
alter-ego before working through six key topics: painting,
sculpture, illustration, decorative art, photography and
contemporary art. Each spread centres on a different technique for
producing a piece of art, and relates the activity back to a famous
artist or movement in a light-hearted and playful tone. Activities
include making a Bruegel circus, playing a Surrealist game, selling
a scribble for a million pounds and painting your face like a
Russian Futurist. A section of paper-based crafts at the end of the
book includes a kit to build a camera obscura.
