Item Description

This Young Readers Pack includes:

THE LAUGHING RIVER: A Folktale For Peace, by Elizabeth Haze Vega 

"Two fanciful African tribes -- the Funga & Alafia -- are in conflict until the laughing river bubbles melodiously into their lives, bringing fun, friendship and peace. This enchanting lyrical folktale brings love and laughter into the lives of young and old.

Fun-filled, colorful illustrations by New Zealand artist Ashley Smith are delightful and perfectly characterize the Funga and Alafia peoples.

There is no limit to a child's creativity: Read along...Sing along...Play along...with Elizabeth Haze Vega. Author Vega is also a talented Orff musician and teacher, and THE LAUGHING RIVER includes easy-to-follow music, instructions for making and playing a drum, dance steps and hand motions to accompanying THE LAUGHING RIVER songs which are available on a companion audiotape. Children love it!" -- Amazon.com

OVER IN THE FOREST: Come and Take a Peek, by Marianne Berkes

"Jump like a squirrel, dunk like a raccoon, and . . . uh-oh . . . watch out for the skunk! Children learn the ways of forest animals to the rhythm of Over in the Meadow in this delightful introduction to the woodland habitat. They will also count the babies and search for hidden animals. And when they see how each illustration is made from cut paper, they may be inspired to try cut-paper art, too." -- Amazon.com

THE DANDELION SEED'S BIG DREAM, by Joseph Anthony

"Consider the dandelion. It lives life fully, flies with beauty, survives storms, endures darkness, never gives up. It is one of nature s greatest success stories. Like dandelions, each of us can make the world a brighter place. The trick is to bloom right where we are. Back matter includes information and activities about dandelions and weeds, seed dispersal, and the theme of courage, patience, and perseverance." -- Amazon.com
