Step back in time and follow dinosaur tracks around the world.
Whether made by a few dinosaurs or large groups, these tracks
provide clues to the movement and behavior of these lovable ancient
creatures. What dinosaurs made the tracks and what do scientists
think they were doing when they made them? The author tells the
story in rhythmic rhyme that may be sung to the tune of Over the
River and Through the Woods.
A wild prairie is a lively place in this rhythmic romp with
munchers and crunchers above and below the grasses so thick and
fires that flare and rains that quench - and always the prairie
grows green. The book, also, includes information and activities
for a fuller appreciation of this marvellous, disappearing habitat.
Ages 4 to 10
A 21st century re-imagining of the Canterbury Tales, set on a
vacation cruise in the midst of the pandemic, a wonderful story for
our time  Hoping for an adventure (at a discounted price),
two dozen strangers set sail to balmy St. Thomas in the Virgin
Islands. As different from one another as strangers can be, they
agree to pass the time by telling stories, entertaining one
another. As the stories are shared, everyone learns more about
their neighbors and starts to bond. Partway though the voyage,
however, they are notified about a virus that has spread across the
United States and their destination. Their ship is quarantined and
they are destined to loll on the waves of the open sea until a port
welcomes them. Stuck together in the confines of the ship, they
continue regaling each other with more tales.  A
Journey to St. Thomas is modern re-imagining of Geoffrey
Chaucer’s Canterbury Tales. Josiah Hatch, who studied Anglo Saxon
and Middle English languages at Oxford University, uses iambic
pentameter and craftily updates Chaucer’s characters to those on
the present-day cruise liner.
