Who hasn't done the time-honored nursery rhyme, Pat-a-Cake, with their child at least a hundred times? Well, this version is sure to create just as many smiles, as your child is slowly led into baking...well, let's just say it's not exactly a cake Mother and son authors Melanie Dellas and John Woodworth take you on a light-hearted and cute tour of one of the silly things they do at home with John's little brother, Nick, and their little dog, Clio.
Fantastic, Fabulous Creatures & Beasts came about because of my love of history. I take "real" folk tales and write them in a format that will help children remember them. Because I have not embellished the stories or changed them in any way from their original versions, you will find nice creatures and not-so-nice creatures. The tales contained in Vol. 2 are from Native America, India, China, Scandinavia, Greece, France, Switzerland, Scotland, Russia, Wales and Africa. Through my books it is my hope that children will come to respect and appreciate the multicultural world they live in and, of course, remember that our world is still mystical and magical - as long as our stories remain alive
Fantastic, Fabulous Creatures & Beasts came about because of my love of history. As a child I was fascinated with folk tales from other countries and the history of ancient civilizations. I read everything I could get my hands on, including the many encyclopedias my parents kept in the study. There was a certain thrill in discovering mythology from all over the world and seeing how closely related it all was. As an adult, my love for mythology and history never ceased. In fact, it grew stronger. After having my second child, I decided it was time to put my favorite myths into a book that would not only entertain my children, but teach them about the various cultures and their folklore. I have taken the "real" folk tales and written them in a format that will help children remember them. Because I have not embellished the stories or changed them in any way from their original versions, you will find happy creatures and sad creatures, friendly creatures and not-so-friendly creatures. The tales contained within are from China, Russia, India and many other countries. Through this book, it is my hope that children will come to respect and appreciate the multicultural world they live in and, of course, remember that our world is still mystical and magical - as long as our stories remain alive.
