A great activity book to keep kids off screens.
A recognizable and warm story about the arrival of a new baby. For
sweet siblings ages 4 and up. Squirrel is going to be a big sister.
But she is worried...Will her parents still think she is sweet or
pretty? And why does everybody seem to be so in love with the new
baby? Are they all forgetting about her?
Selected for the White Raven 2020 list of recommendations! "Great
book for kindergarten and first-grade students especially during
the opening days of school... Delightfully illustrated, very
colorful and eye-catching. This book should be a part of every
classroom and school library. Homes and public libraries should own
copies of this book, too. The story is always encouraging
exploration, positive feelings, and adventures for young people." -
ITEEA Kiki looks in the mirror. She thinks her fur is boring. Then
Kiki has an idea. She uses pencils, ink, and paint to make herself
colorful. Will her friends think she is special now? A fun story
about appreciating yourself just the way you are. For all children
ages 4 and up. Guided Reading Level I The lesson to take from the
book is that we are all unique and special and we do not need
approval. It's stunningly illustrated and it would make for a good
read-aloud book while discussing the theme and ensuring children
understand the key points.
First Published in 2005. Routledge is an imprint of Taylor &
Francis, an informa company.
Hawthorne wrote much of his major fiction in the decade that the
theories of Charles Marie Francois Fourier crossed the Atlantic and
contributed to a wave of communitarian experimentation in the
American North. Famously, Hawthorne briefly lived and worked at
Brook Farm, a Transcendentalist commune that formally "converted"
to Fourierism when he had left and was embroiled in litigation to
recover money he had invested in the community. In his fiction,
Hawthorne responded directly to Fourierism and its critique of
capitalism. He used his experiences at Brook Farm as the
inspiration for "The Blithedale Romance," and in "The House of the
Seven Gables" cast one of the principal characters as a recovering
Fourierist. In "The Scarlet Letter" he engaged with Fourierist
debates on marriage and the regulation of desire. ""Somewhat on
the" "Community-System"" examines these interventions, and argues
that Hawthorne's fiction both seeks to contain Fourierism and
responds to its allure. Moreover, in formulating alternative,
morally acceptable utopias (ones that are predicated on
middle-class marriage), Hawthorne's fiction appropriates key
aspects of Fourierist theory

"This is an adorable little picture book about a kitten looking for
her missing friend. The illustrations are wonderful and make this
book perfect for read alouds to younger grade levels, as you can
constantly ask them to look and ask them "do you see bunny"? (Hint:
bunny is hiding on every page!) I also enjoyed the exploration of
different rooms in a household and the objects found in each of
them-so many discussions to be had with young readers over this
cute little picture book!" - Springdale Elementary "I think this
would be a fantastic book for children that are learning sight
words. The illustrations are also easily identifiable to match the
sight words. The illustrations are also super adorable and very
well thought out." - Spines and Stitches Muffin wants to play with
Bunny. But . . . where is he? Muffin looks in the living room, in
her bedroom, in the laundry room . . . but Bunny is nowhere to be
found. Have you seen Bunny? A cheerful story about friendship and
playing hide-and-seek together. For seeking champions ages 3 and
