Buddy and his mother are spending a relaxing day at Pete’s Pond.
As Mama tells Buddy about the animals, bugs, and plants they see,
Buddy sketches them on his drawing pad. Ducks! Whirligig beetles!
Lily pads! Buddy is curious about everything, but most of all, he
hopes to see a turtle. And he does—but not the kind he expected!
This book, illustrated with photographs and cut-paper artwork, is a
perfect introduction to environmental science and biology, but will
also be useful to all enthusiastic pond goers. A make-a-rock turtle
craft activity is included.
Join Mama and Buddy Bear's stroll through the seasons as they
examine the development of leaves on their favorite trees. In early
spring, Buddy wonders when the leaves will emerge from their buds
and blossom into the wonderful shapes he and Mama like to collect
in the summer months. Mama, a treasure trove of tree facts, shares
Buddy's love of leaves and encourages him to use his eyes and hands
to explore how a tree produces, maintains, and then sheds its
foliage. With a wealth of information tucked into an engaging
story, this informational picture book is a perfect pick for
classroom investigations or story time.
Random acts of kindness pictured on a paper quiltMinna and her
classmates have been asked by their teacher, Mrs. Bloom, to work on
a Kindness Project. Mrs. Bloom wants them to do and draw and share
an act of kindness. Minna and her family do lots of kind things,
but Minna can't decide which one is right for her project. Then she
starts writing and drawing and cutting--and an idea for a paper
quilt picturing many acts of kindness begins to take shape
Important lessons about being kind to each other are depicted in
NANCY ELIZABETH WALLACE's charming artwork using origami, recycled
paper, markers, crayons, and colored pencils.
Soon it will be the one-hundredth day of school. Minna wants to
come up with a really, really different idea for her Ready, Set,
100th project. With the help of Mom, Dad, and Pip, Minna searches
the house. She finds and makes all sort of things. She arranges
them in sets, and she plays with them. But she's "still thinking!"
until, suddenly, she gets a BIG idea! Important math lessons are
incorporated into Wallace's signature artwork using origami,
recycled paper, markers, crayons, colored pencils and photographs.

Nancy Elizabeth Wallace has done it again with her adorable
three-dimensional artwork created with cut paper, scissors, and a
glue stick. She invites children to enter an alphabet house and
join a family of bunnies as they look for familiar objects starting
with the letters A to Z. If they miss anything, an easy-to-follow
answer key is provided at the back. An almost wordless text makes
Alphabet House a great introduction to visual literacy, and the
paper quilts on the endpapers add another colorful way to look at
the alphabet.

After sneaking into a museum, three tiny mice discover that
sculptures can be big or little, textured or smooth, and made with
different materials. Some stand alone, others are in a group, and
still others move. The mice look at the front, the back, and the
sides of a slate sculpture by Barbara Hepworth. They see shapes,
and shapes within shapes. They think, feel, and then create their
own sculptures. Wallace has integrated photographs of real
sculptures into her cut-paper artwork to point out the diverse
forms that sculptures can take. She reinforces the value of
creativity and art literacy in a child’s life. A craft activity
and short biography of Barbara Hepworth are included.
