29,900 | 15 | The Plant Parts series consists of six books titled Roots, Seeds, Flowers, Fruits, Stems, and Leaves. The books are aimed at the very earliest readers, from prekindergarten through grade 2. The sentences are very short with a limited vocabulary, in the face of which the factual presentaiton is nonetheless very nicely done. Each page of text is paired with a full-page photo. The photos are beautiful and aptly illustrate the text. Most of the photos use subjects that would be quickly recognized by the reader; for example, Fruits has excellent photos of apples, kiwis, and peaches, while Roots has equally excellent photos of radishes, carrots, and turnips. The photos add to the appeal of the book and probably help early readers recognize words. Each books has a glossary, an index, and a list of further readings. In addition, reference is made to a child-friendly search engine that would be useful to children at the upper edge of the target audience. Used as a set, these books give a good, age-appropriate introduction to plants and would be useful in a classroom setting or in early childhood-oriented garden programs. They are not hands-on science books, but it is easy to imagine activities that would nicely complement their text. --Science Books & Films; Vol. 43, No. 2; Pages 82-83, March 2007This new series is an excellent introduction to the parts of a plant. Focusing on just one plant part in each book, the opening chapters present clear and simple explanations of why plants need that particular part to grow and flourish. Succeeding chapters discuss the varieties of that plant part found in nature. The full-page photographs beautifully illustrate the books subjects. Whereas most of the definitions in the glossaries are appropriately worded for young children, some younger readers may need additional help. Also included are instructions for finding relevant Internet sites through FactHound, a very attractive, fun, and easy-to-use Web site that suggests pre-selected, age-appropriate Internet resources. In addition to very effectively supporting science standards related to the identification of plant parts, the books features can also be used to teach about the parts of a book. Young readers will certainly enjoy using these attractive, accurate, and carefully designed books. Bibliography. Glossary. Index. Recommended. --Library Media Connection; Vol. 25, No. 7; Page 67, April 2007Brilliant and interesting photographs, simple diagrams, and a short, informative text are the highlights of this Plant Parts series, which features titles on flowers, leaves, and stems. The photography is exquisite, as each flower drips with dew or appears ready to be plucked from the page. We learn that cauliflower and artichokes are flowers and by seeing the photograph on each page, young readers easily learn these two big new words. There are photos of fruit beginning to grow in a pollinated flower-- and a hummingbird sipping nectar from a flower. There is a very short index, a list of additional books, and a reference to the Facthound web site with links to age-appropriate sites for each book. This is an outstanding series of concept books for new and pre-readers; the photographs make the book interesting enough to use with older children who struggle with reading and concepts. --Children's Literature Comprehensive Database, March 2007Vijaya Bodach is a Capstone Author; Title: Flowers (Plant Parts) | [

29,901 | 18 | Part of the Graphic Library series, this title gives a great sense of what it was like to arrive on the Mayflower, including having to live on a freezing ship during the winter months until shelters were built, as the Pilgrims were ill-equipped and ill-prepared for the conditions they found. Because of native peoples like Samoset and Tesquantum, known as Squanto, the Pilgrims learned how to plant crops, fish, hunt, and take care of themselves. The thankful Pilgrims invited local tribes to a harvest feast to celebrate their bounty of food and the fact that their settlement was growing stronger after initial disease and starvation. At the end of the easy-to-read comic-style book, additional short facts about the Pilgrims are presented, as well as a glossary and list of further sources. This graphic depiction of the Pilgrims harvest festival is an excellent resource for reluctant readers in elementary, middle, and upper school. --Childrens Literature Comprehensive Database, January 2007On November 11th, 1620, a small ship called the Mayflower sailed into Cape Cod. The weary people on board were eager to stand on dry land once more but it would be some months before they would begin living in the new settlement which they called New Plymouth. The winter was a very hard one. The new arrivals had little to eat and sickness killed many of them. Not far from New Plymouth local Native American tribesmen watched what was going on and hoped that the white people would move on. But the Pilgrims were determined to stay and when the Mayflower set sail for England in the spring, none of the settlers were on it. Then, in March, one of the Native Americans who was called Samoset decided to talk to the Pilgrims. He spoke English well and soon he and a friend of his, Squanto, were teaching the Pilgrims how to catch game and fish, how to plant corn, and other skills that the English would need to survive. In the fall of that year the Pilgrims decided to have a harvest feast and they invited the Native Americans to join them. The Native Americans had been holding celebrations of thanksgiving for hundreds of years and they were glad to contribute to the celebration and to join the English in giving thanks for the good harvest and for good friends. In this excellent account of the Pilgrim s first year in the New World, readers will be able to see how hard life was for the English who had much to learn about the country in which they found themselves. There can be do doubt that the Pilgrims could well have failed in their efforts if they had not had the help of the local Native Americans. This version of the now famous story emphasizes this and it also shows us that the first Thanksgiving was a combination of the centuries old European harvest feast and the centuries old Native American Thanksgiving celebration. Comic book style artwork makes this book a perfect fit for readers who prefer a more graphic rich format. --Through the Looking Glass Childrens Book Review, November 2006Mary Englar is a freelance writer and a teacher of English and creative writing.

29,902 | 22 | William Penn is remembered chiefly as the founder of Pennsylvania. This graphic biography (think comic strip) follows Penns life from his boyhood through his growing interest in the Quaker religion and the consequences of his decision to become an active Quaker. Imprisoned several times for preaching before Quaker meetings, Penn decided that it might be best to establish a free Quaker settlement in North America. He had the opportunity to do so when King James II settled a loan due Penns father by granting Penn a large area of land that became the state of Pennsylvania. From the Graphic Biographies series, the colorful format is certain to appeal to todays kids; it is likely to get reluctant readers to take a second look at material that they might otherwise view as boring. Told for the most part through dialogue, this biography is fast-moving, entertaining, and amazingly informative. (Dr. Craig Horle, co-editor of The Papers of William Penn, served as a consultant .) At the end of the book readers will find two pages of facts about William Penn, a glossary, a brief list of Internet sites and books where one can learn more, a bibliography, and an index. --Childrens Literature Comprehensive Database, January 2007############################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################### --Library Media Connection; Vol. 25, No. 7; Pages 83-84, April 2007############################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################### --Children's Literature Comprehensive Database, January 2007Ryan Jacobson is a Capstone Author; Title: William Penn: Founder of Pennsylvania (Graphic Biographies) | [

29,903 | 18 | Three episodes from American history get graphic makeovers. In Samuel Adams, a young patriot begins to question British rule. The biography follows him from his early days resisting taxation without representation to his final days as governor of Massachusetts. Lewis and Clark highlights the monumental trek, including the contributions of Sacagawea. The events before and after the mysterious disappearance of an entire colony are the focus of Roanoke Colony. While the artwork and dialogue are not outstanding, the three volumes do offer interesting glimpses into the past. The pacing and full-color illustrations bring the emotional aspect of these topics to life. Each book includes a follow-up section on the topic. Useful supplements or introductions. --School Library Journal; Vol. 53, No. 5; Page 165, June 2007President Thomas Jefferson was a curious man. He was also aware of how good it would be for trade if a northwest passage could be found which connected the two oceans on either side of his great country. So, he decided to send his secretary and friend, Meriwether Lewis out on an expedition to explore the lands beyond the Mississippi River. He hoped that Lewis would be able to learn about these lands and perhaps find the hoped for passage. Lewis quickly set about putting together a group of twenty-one soldiers and twenty frontiersmen which he called the Corps of Discovery. He chose his friend and comrade, William Clark, to co-captain the group. After many preparations the group left Fort Wood, near St. Louis, on May 14 of 1804. They launched their one boat and set off upstream. Going against the current was backbreaking and often the men had to pull the boat with ropes. After traveling for two months they met their first Native American tribesman. Many more encounters with different tribes followed and that first winter the Corps spent the winter near the camp of the Mandan tribe. It was here that Lewis and Clark met a French-Canadian trapper and his Native American wife. She was called Sacagawea and because she knew the language of the Shoshone she and her husband were invited to join the expedition. In April of 1805 the journey due west began once more. Soon they were heading towards the mountains and it became clear that no waterway could possibly cross the high peaks. A Northwest Passage did not exist but the group was determined to see what lay to the west even if there was no river to take them there. Luckily the Shoshone were willing to help the travelers and they traded with them for horses which carried the men and their supplies up the mountains and to the other side. Ahead of them, due west, lay the Pacific Ocean. This splendid book with its gripping text and its wonderful graphic artwork will give young readers an excellent introduction to one of the most fascinating expeditions ever made. Readers will meet Sacagawea whose language skills helped the Americans, and York, an African American whose courage and good sense made him an invaluable member of the group. --Through the Looking Glass Childrens Book Review, , February 2007This story is a nonfiction account of the great expedition requested by President Jefferson. Lewis and Clark, with men and supplies, set off to find a passage that would connect the land between the two oceans. Up until this expedition, few went beyond the Mississippi River. While on this dangerous adventure, Lewis and Clark meet a French-Canadian trapper and his wife, Sacagawea, who accompany them and prove very valuable in the success of the journey because Sacagawea can translate the Indian language. This adventure provides insight to the hardships endured by early explorers, as well as the good times and the excitement of success. The book is written in graphic format that is a favorite of mine. The graphic format makes it perfect for students who are reluctant readers and never seem to finish a book on their own. Young adults who want to read anything they can get their hands on will also enjoy the graphics and fast paced text. The full-color graphics make an enormous impact on the story. The author includes a box on most pages with narration giving extra information to the reader to help with comprehension. Vocabulary has been well-selected. This book is an excellent resource that could be used for writing a summary, a book report, or as a source for research. At the end of the book the author includes two pages with more information about the expedition. I honestly did not know that Jefferson made Lewis the Governor of the Louisiana Territory. The author also includes a Glossary with a pronunciation guide, and a list of other books and web sites that might be of interest to the reader. I highly recommend this book that is part of the Graphic Library series. --Childrens Literature Comprehensive Database, July 2007Jessica Gunderson grew up in the small town of Washburn, North Dakota.

29,905 | 18 | It was December 1st, 1955 when Rosa Parks refused to give up her seat on a public bus for a white man. The laws of that time said that blacks must sit at the back of the bus and that they had to give up their seat to any white person who asked for it, but Rosa had had enough. Though she was breaking the law she decided at that moment that she would not recognize a law which she thought was wrong. Rosa was arrested and put into jail for her actions. Rosa had long been a member of the NAACP, an organization which was trying to fight against the segregation laws of the south. After the NAACP got her out of jail, Rosa met with some other members and it was decided that on the day when Rosa was to go to court, the black people of Montgomery Alabama would boycott the public buses in protest. The boycott was very successful and the boycott leaders decided that they would continue their protest until segregation was stopped once and for all. It was decided that the boycott leaders would form an association and that Martin Luther King Jr. would be the president of the association. Rosa Parks kept up the fight for civil rights all her life. She helped Martin Luther King Jr. and his followers whenever they asked her to and founded an institute in Detroit which teaches young people how to be good leaders. This excellent book will help young readers to see that there are times when one has to stand up for what one believes in. Presented in a graphic rich format, the book presents the story of Rosa Parks and the civil rights movement in easy to follow text and serves as a fitting tribute to a woman who had great courage. --Through the Looking Glass Childrens Book Review, February 2007Part of the Graphic Library series, this book is a wonderful introduction to Rosa Parks and the Civil Rights movement. Because the author provides a sequential and clear outline of the historical events of the time, the story of Rosa Parks and the Montgomery bus boycott is told in a meaningful and interesting way. The graphic novel is broken into four chapters, each one telling a specific part of Rosa Parks story. Through the content presented, readers are introduced to important figures involved in the civil rights movement, racial segregation laws, significant dates and court decisions, important events in the civil rights movement, and the political and social climate of the time. Furthermore, the author shows the impact the Montgomery Bus Boycott had on the civil rights movement and tells about Rosa s life after the boycott. This book can be integrated into the classroom in many ways. It can serve as a way to introduce students to informational texts and to teach nonfiction reading strategies. It can also aid in building a student s background knowledge about the civil rights movement. The book includes a table of contents, a glossary, information about where to find more resources about Rosa Parks and the civil rights movement, a bibliography, and an index. The illustrations are vibrant and complement the text. The use of color in the illustrations adds character and atmosphere to the images being represented. --Childrens Literature Comprehensive Database, January 2007Connie Colwell Miller is a writer, editor, and teacher who lives and works in Mankato, Minnesota.

Useful supplements or introductions. --School Library Journal; Vol. 53, No. 5; Page 165, June 2007Samuel Adams grew up in Boston, Massachusetts, and when he was a young man and at Harvard College he became familiar with the work of the John Locke, the English philosopher. Locke put forward the idea that it is the people and not the government who should hold the power in a country. This was an idea which greatly intrigued Adams and he decided to go into politics. While he was still at Harvard, Samuel began to understand what Locke was talking about. The unfair laws imposed on the colonies by the British crown directly affected his family. Samuel tried various jobs and ended up working in the family brewery. All the while he thought about how the colonists shouldn t be subjected to British law without representation in England. He joined a group of men who felt the same way and when a new law was passed, The Stamp Act, he worked hard to show the British that the colonists were not going to accept this law. Though the British knew that Adams was behind the activism against the Stamp Act, they could not prove it and they did not dare arrest him. Then in September of 1765 Samuel won a political appointment and after the Stamp Act was repealed, he decided that the time had come to bring together a group of powerful people who would be willing to work towards self-rule for the colonies. Defeating the Stamp Act was just the beginning for Samuel Adams. In this excellent Graphic History title, young readers will discover how active Samuel Adams was before and during and after the American Revolutionary War. He was often the one who worked behind the scenes but whose work had an enormous impact on the cause as a whole. Well written and presented in the form of a graphic novel, this title is certain to appeal to readers who don t usually find history and biographies interesting. --Through the Looking Glass Childrens Book Review, September 2007############################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################### --Children's Literature Comprehensive Database, July 2007Matt Doeden is a freelance author and editor from Minnesota.

29,907 | 2 | Looking for a way to get kids interested in the characteristics of different biomes? This series of books draws children in with inviting covers that give readers a quick view of each different biome. Throughout this series, students explore each landscape from a variety of different viewpoints. Each book has six chapters, and readers gather valuable information for report writing. High-quality photos can be used to develop food webs or as the basis for discussions. In each book, there is a chapter that profiles a real scientist and field notes that give readers additional, high-interest factoids. The vocabulary showcased in these books is far from ordinary and provides clear definitions and examples that show the meaning in context. From the animals and plants that inhabit the biome to the additional websites, these books are perfect for elementary level students. The mysterious desert can be easily misunderstood by students. The authors of this book provide clear explanations of climate, location, and the organisms that live in this biome. Contrasting weather systems are described in detail. Plants like the Joshua tree and organisms like the tarantula are used as illustrations of adaptations to desert conditions. This book will help students understand the desert and want to learn more. --NSTA Recommends, January 2007With controlled vocabulary and short, simple sentences, this Explore the Biomes series is intended to engage the interest of middle readers with below-expectation reading levels and help them access information about varied ecological communities called biomes. Each book contains five or six short chapters defining the biome, introducing native plants and animals, exploring the role of humans in that ecology, and then offering a field guide (quick facts) and a profile of a scientist who works in one of the biomes being studied. Following this formula, the authors have managed to make the brief text as lively as possible; color photos are generally well selected and of much greater interest than is usual in a series from this publisher. Readers will be able to identify desert areas on a world map and learn about desert plants like cacti and spinifex grass. Another chapter introduces desert animals; for example, scorpions, sidewinders, elf owls, and coyotes. Stressing conservation, the chapter on desert people explains the fragility of a desert and the drain on resources when humans build cities there. Especially striking are the photos of a blue-robed Tuareg leading his camel in the Sahara and a face-to-face look at a shaggy brown tarantula. Readers will meet Dr. Steve Goodman, a scientist who has worked in Madagascar studying mouse lemurs. These visually attractive books present biome overviews that should be colorful and appealing enough to inspire further research. Each title contains a glossary, a short bibliography, and an index. --Children's Literature Comprehensive Database, January 2007Kay Jackson is a Capstone Author; Title: Explore the Desert (Explore the Biomes) | [

29,908 | 17 | Part of the Graphic Library: Graphic Biographies series, this brief biography of Martin Luther King, Jr. focuses on his leadership in the civil rights movement. It is noteworthy that the author consulted with an associate professor in African American Studies from Berkeley in creating the narrative and used excerpts from King s own speeches in the dialogue. King s accomplishments are rightfully set within the context of larger community efforts by African Americans to gain access to equal services and rights. The graphic novel style of illustrations, accompanied by dialog balloons and brief narrative boxes, may well entice otherwise reluctant readers to learn more about King s life and the events surrounding the passage of the Civil Rights and Voting Rights Acts. Although there are other extraordinary pictorial works on King (e.g., Martin s Big Words), the graphic novel has unique appeal and growing legitimacy as a format for non-fiction material targeted to middle school readers. Additional utility is provided through two pages of supplemental information about his life and accomplishments, a short glossary, bibliographies of books and Websites, and an index. As well as being an accessible biography, this book could provide an appropriate supplemental text for social studies curriculum on desegregation and civil rights, African American history, or community action. --Childrens Literature Comprehensive Database, January 2007Martin Luther King Jr. grew up in Atlanta, Georgia. In those days, in the 1930s and 1940s, black people like him were not allowed the same freedoms that white people had. Segregation laws kept the two races apart and black people were treated as if they were inferior. Martin s parents did their best to equip their son to deal with these hardships and taught him to be proud of who and what he was. When he was a young man Martin went to college in the north for a few years and there he met people who treated him with respect and decency. When he went back home he decided that he was not going to accept the segregation laws without a fight, but he also decided that his fight would be a peaceful one. He would speak, protest, boycott, and march. He would not resort to violence and he would not sanction those who did. Through his work as a pastor, Martin was able to reach out to a lot of people and he was able to mobilize the community to protest against segregation. Using a graphic rich, comic strip style format, the author of this book brings the story of Martin Luther King to life. She helps her readers understand how hard it was to be a black person in the south and how much courage was needed to fight for civil rights.This is the perfect book for the young reader who likes to read books with lots of illustrations in them. Reluctant readers will discover that history can be both entertaining and interesting. --Through the Looking Glass Childrens Book Review, February 2007############################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################### --Through the Looking Glass Children's Book Review, November 2006Jennifer Fandel is a Capstone Author; Title: Martin Luther King, Jr.: Great Civil Rights Leader (Graphic Biographies) | [

29,909 | 15 | The Plant Parts series consists of six books titled Roots, Seeds, Flowers, Fruits, Stems, and Leaves. The books are aimed at the very earliest readers, from prekindergarten through grade 2. The sentences are very short with a limited vocabulary, in the face of which the factual presentaiton is nonetheless very nicely done. Each page of text is paired with a full-page photo. The photos are beautiful and aptly illustrate the text. Most of the photos use subjects that would be quickly recognized by the reader; for example, Fruits has excellent photos of apples, kiwis, and peaches, while Roots has equally excellent photos of radishes, carrots, and turnips. The photos add to the appeal of the book and probably help early readers recognize words. Each books has a glossary, an index, and a list of further readings. In addition, reference is made to a child-friendly search engine that would be useful to children at the upper edge of the target audience. Used as a set, these books give a good, age-appropriate introduction to plants and would be useful in a classroom setting or in early childhood-oriented garden programs. They are not hands-on science books, but it is easy to imagine activities that would nicely complement their text. --Science Books & Films; Vol. 43, No. 2; Pages 82-83, March 2007This new series is an excellent introduction to the parts of a plant. Focusing on just one plant part in each book, the opening chapters present clear and simple explanations of why plants need that particular part to grow and flourish. Succeeding chapters discuss the varieties of that plant part found in nature. The full-page photographs beautifully illustrate the books subjects. Whereas most of the definitions in the glossaries are appropriately worded for young children, some younger readers may need additional help. Also included are instructions for finding relevant Internet sites through FactHound, a very attractive, fun, and easy-to-use Web site that suggests pre-selected, age-appropriate Internet resources. In addition to very effectively supporting science standards related to the identification of plant parts, the books features can also be used to teach about the parts of a book. Young readers will certainly enjoy using these attractive, accurate, and carefully designed books. Bibliography. Glossary. Index. Recommended. --Library Media Connection; Vol. 25, No. 7; Page 67, April 2007Large or small, all seeds grow into amazing plants. This beautiful book has colorful close-up illustrations that depict seeds in a natural state. The floating seeds of a dandelion, the bright green seeds of a peapod, and the crunchy seeds inside a sunflower all deliver an effective message about the importance of seeds. This is a nice big book that is just right for small hands and curious minds. Seeds is written with early readers in mind; it has a carefully controlled vocabulary with short repetitive sentences. The text corresponds to national science standards making Seeds an ideal choice for a first informational text. It contains all the components of a nonfiction text: a table of contents, glossary, titles, highlighted vocabulary, labeled diagrams, and an index. In addition, Internet references send readers to facthound.com with a book ID number to help them locate safe Internet sites related to the book topic. Seeds is just one of the books in this early reader series; other titles highlight different parts of the plant: fruits, stems, leaves, and roots. Each book in this series focuses on one plant part yet culminates in a way that ensures that the reader understands that each plant part is vital and that they must all work together to enable a plant to grow and thrive. --Childrens Literature Comprehensive Database, January 2007Vijaya Bodach is a Capstone Author; Title: Seeds (Plant Parts) | [

29,910 | 15 | Looking for a way to get kids interested in the characteristics of different biomes? This series of books draws children in with inviting covers that give readers a quick view of each different biome. Throughout this series, students explore each landscape from a variety of different viewpoints. Each book has six chapters, and readers gather valuable information for report writing. High-quality photos can be used to develop food webs or as the basis for discussions. In each book, there is a chapter that profiles a real scientist and field notes that give readers additional, high-interest factoids. The vocabulary showcased in these books is far from ordinary and provides clear definitions and examples that show the meaning in context. From the animals and plants that inhabit the biome to the additional websites, these books are perfect for elementary level students. In Rain Forest, readers have the opportunity to see this unusual biome up close. Focusing on climate and differences in the layers, the reader quickly discovers the uniqueness of this biome. Unusual animals and insects are emphasized. The most interesting part of this book is the focus on what the rain forest yields. Medicine and food are important discoveries in the rain forest. The scientist at work in this book, a biologist, reinforces the importance of this biome. This book will introduce students to the most mysterious biome on the planet and keep them wanting to learn more! --NSTA Recommends, January 2007With controlled vocabulary and short, simple sentences, this Explore the Biomes series is intended to engage the interest of middle readers with below-expectation reading levels and help them access information about varied ecological communities called biomes. Each book contains five or six short chapters defining the biome, introducing native plants and animals, exploring the role of humans in that ecology, and then offering a field guide (quick facts) and a profile of a scientist who works in one of the biomes being studied. Following this formula, the authors have managed to make the brief text as lively as possible; color photos are generally well selected and of much greater interest than is usual in a series from this publisher. Readers will be able to identify rain forest areas on a world map and learn about plants like vanilla orchids and smelly Rafflesia. Another chapter introduces rain forest animals; for example, coral snakes, jaguars, macaws, and emerald tree vipers. Stressing conservation, the chapter on human interaction explains the fragility of a rain forest and its threats from clearing, logging, and destruction of unique species. Especially striking are the photos of huge rose and brown cacao pods and a close-up of a Huaorani man shooting his blowgun. Readers will meet Fabian Michelangeli, a rain forest biologist who studies and preserves the unusual ant plant. These visually attractive books present biome overviews that should be colorful and appealing enough to inspire further research. Each title contains a glossary, a short bibliography, and an index. --Children's Literature Comprehensive Database, January 2007############################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################### --Children's Literature Comprehensive Database, January 2007Linda Tagliaferro is a Capstone Author; Title: Explore the Tropical Rain Forest (Explore the Biomes) | [

29,911 | 15 | The Patterns in Nature series provides developmentally appropriate science content to beginning readers. Each book has a simplified table of contents, with understandable chapter headings, which encourages application of pre-reading strategies. The index makes topical information accessible. Each book contains a glossary, additional text suggestions, and internet resources. Photographs and illustrations aid comprehension and encourage further reading. The reasons for Day and Night are difficult for young children to comprehend, and yet this author carefully explains the science in language beginning readers can grasp. Primary readers will enjoy reading the brief text supported by colorful photographs and illustrations. --NSTA Recommends, January 2007Brilliant and interesting photographs, easily understood diagrams and a short, informative text are the highlights of this Patterns in Nature series, which features titles on day and night, hibernation, phases of the moon and seasons of the year. This title begins with simple descriptions and photographs of a sunny day and several interesting nighttime shots: a snow-covered house glowing with lights, people in sleeping bags by a campfire, and an owl about to pounce dramatically on its prey. A short glossary explains words like nocturnal and rotate. The last page shows a circle diagram of sunrise leading to day and then to sunset followed by night: a pattern. It happens again and again. Children can see the principle and learn the words that explain that principle. There is a very short index, a list of additional books, and a reference to the facthound web site with links to age-appropriate sites for each book. This is an outstanding series of concept books for new and pre-readers; the photographs make the book interesting enough to use with older children who struggle with reading and concepts. --Children's Literature Comprehensive Database, January 2007Margaret Hall is a Capstone Author; Title: Day and Night (Patterns in Nature) | [

29,912 | 22 | Amelia Earhart was never afraid to try new things. She built her own roller coaster in the backyard when she was only seven years old. During the winter she loved to speed down the hills on her sled--lying on her belly like the boys. When she saw her first air show in 1920, she was hooked and soon began taking flying lessons. During her aviation career she set many world records and became a well-known and well-respected aviator. She disappeared while attempting a flight around the world in 1937. Part of Capstone Press Graphic Library series, Amelia Earhart s story is told here in graphic novel format. With a carefully controlled vocabulary, simple sentence structure, and straight forward presentation of information, it is ideally suited for the reluctant or below grade level reader. A table of contents, glossary, bibliography, an index, and additional information sections providing key facts about Amelia Earhart s fascinating life, round out the presentation. An Accelerated Reader quiz is available. --Children's Literature Comprehensive Database, July 2007From very early on it was obvious that Amelia Earhart was not your average girl. Instead of playing quiet games like the other girls, Amelia built a roller coaster in her backyard and scared her family half to death. Indeed no one should really have been surprised when grown up Amelia announced that she wanted to take flying lessons. Amelia not only worked to pay for her lessons but she also learned how to repair and take care of airplanes, much to the amazement of the mechanics who had never seen a woman do such work. It wasn t long before Amelia began to get a name for herself as famous pilot and when she was asked to be the first woman to cross the Atlantic in an airplane she gladly accepted. The trip was dangerous and Amelia was a great help as a navigator and assistant but she couldn t help wishing that was one who sitting behind the controls. Just four years later Amelia got her wish when she began her solo flight across the Atlantic. It took her fourteen hours and fifty four minutes and she broke yet another world record while she was at it. Being the first woman to cross the Atlantic wasn t enough for Amelia though. She wanted to do more. This time she wanted to go around the world and this time it was a journey that she did not complete. Without a doubt Amelia Earhart is one of the great women in history and her exploits have fascinated girls and young women for decades. Young readers who are interested in finding out about Amelia and her life will be delighted with this graphic novel style biography. This is one of the many titles in the excellent Graphic Library series. --Through the Looking Glass Children's Book Review, July 2007Jameson Anderson is a Capstone Author; Title: Amelia Earhart: Legendary Aviator (Graphic Biographies) | [

29,913 | 18 | This new title in the Capstone Graphic Library series presents the drama of the first Moon landing and includes authentic astronaut-mission control conversations and detailed illustrations. Using bold, full-color graphic illustrations, this series portrays critical chapters in American history in a way that reluctant readers will find accessible. Simple, exciting text and vivid drawings work together to explain critical events that shaped the course of American history. For grades 3 and 4. --Lunar & Planetary Information Bulletin, Lunar & Planetary Institute; Issue 109; February 2007When the Soviet Union launched the first satellite into space in 1957, many Americans felt let down. They wanted to see their country make a mark in the field of space exploration too. America made its first major space breakthrough in 1961 when Alan Shepherd became the first American and second human to go into space. President Kennedy was keen to see America do something important in what came to be called the race into space, and later in 1961, in a speech to Congress, Kennedy expressed his hope that America would land a man on the moon before the end of the decade. By December 1968, NASA had managed to get astronauts around the moon and back in the Apollo 8 mission. It was an enormous achievement and it was decided that if Apollo Missions 9 and 10 went well, NASA would attempt a moon landing. Both missions went perfectly and Apollo 11 was scheduled for July 1969. Thus it was that Michael Collins, Buzz Aldrin, and Neil Armstrong were ready and well rehearsed when they climbed aboard their spacecraft on July 16th, 1969. Five hundred million people around he world people watched as the Saturn V rocket blasted off at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida. On July 20th Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin became the first people to walk on the moon and history was made. This book will give young readers a very real picture of what took place before, during, and after the historic first moon landing. Readers will see that there was a quite a rivalry between the Soviet Union and the United States which drove both countries to try to outdo one another in the race into space. An easy to follow text presented in a graphic novel format rich with illustrations makes this the prefect book for readers who prefer books with lots of artwork. This is one of large collection of titles in the Graphic Library series published by Capstone Press. --Through the Looking Glass Childrens Book Review, June 2007This addition to Capstones Graphic Library series presents the drama of the first moon landing, complete with authentic astronaut-mission control talk and detailed illustrations, and a map at the back showing the locations of the six moon landings. Makes me want to go bust out the telescope to see if I can get a closeup of the landing sites. My one issue with this book, and maybe it couldnt really be avoided given the times and the subject matter, but in the whole book there are only two women portrayed, both mothers at home on the living room sofa with husband and son, making rather shallow observations of what theyre watching on TV. Could the moms not have made the science-based answers to their sons questions? And why isnt one of these kids a girl? Other than that gender bias, this is a great book and will certainly be a popular resource for students learning about the early years of the Unites States space program. --Smart Writers Journal, October 2006Thomas K. Adamson has written dozens of nonfiction books for kids on sports, space, math, and more. He lives in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, with his wife and two sons.

29,916 | 15 | This new graphic nonfiction series offers biographical treatments that highlight a technological breakthrough or innovation. Though produced by various illustrators, titles are visually similar: enticing covers, dynamic fonts, bold colors, and vibrant illustrations. Comic book-style word balloons feature fairly sophisticated vocabulary and occasional quotes or other primary source material. Each selection includes titled chapters, a table of contents, summary fact pages, further reading suggestions, and recommended Internet sites. There is close correlation between the dialogue and depicted actions and illustrations, which will provide visual reinforcement for struggling readers. These deceptively slim volumes convey a tremendous amount of information and vocabulary, and should attract attention from reluctant and enthusiastic readers alike. Bibliography. Glossary. Index. Recommended. --Library Media Connection; Vol. 25, No. 7; Pages 83-84, April 2007This title from the Inventions and Discovery series by Graphic Library brings us the story of Sarah Breedlove. Breedlove was a determined woman who went to great lengths to further herself in a time when most African-American women had few options open to them. Breedlove began selling hair products, and eventually formed her own company using her married name of Madam C.J. Walker. Her dedication and perseverance paid off, making Madam Walker the first self-made female millionaire of any race in the United States. As presented in this graphic format, the story of Walker and her company are still an inspirational story. This presentation manages to incorporate all the salient facts of Walkers story, while presenting her tale at a rapid pace. The illustrations are colorful, energetic, and help to move the story along nicely. Walker is quoted on a few pages, and those direct quotes are indicated by a yellow background. The quotes are referenced and identified as quotes from primary sources in an editors note below the CIP. Also presented are a brief timeline, glossary, Internet sites through Facthound.com, a list of suggested readings, bibliography, and index. This is an excellent choice for reluctant readers or young readers interested in biography. --Childrens Literature Comprehensive Database, January 2007############################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################### --Children's Literature Comprehensive Database, January 2007Katherine Krohn is the author of many books for young readers, including biographies, fiction, and graphic science and history books.

29,928 | 15 | This new graphic nonfiction series offers biographical treatments that highlight a technological breakthrough or innovation. Though produced by various illustrators, titles are visually similar: enticing covers, dynamic fonts, bold colors, and vibrant illustrations. Comic book-style word balloons feature fairly sophisticated vocabulary and occasional quotes or other primary source material. Each selection includes titled chapters, a table of contents, summary fact pages, further reading suggestions, and recommended Internet sites. There is close correlation between the dialogue and depicted actions and illustrations, which will provide visual reinforcement for struggling readers. These deceptively slim volumes convey a tremendous amount of information and vocabulary, and should attract attention from reluctant and enthusiastic readers alike. Bibliography. Glossary. Index. Recommended. --Library Media Connection; Vol. 25, No. 7; Pages 83-84, April 2007Grabbing the visual learner s attention, Welvaert is writing for the Graphic Library, a series, a new graphic novel approach for nonfiction. The book uses a comic book format with brief narrative boxes and short, semi-punchy dialogue in balloons. This book is not a biography but a piece of the inventor s life. In this case, Thomas Edison joins others in the race to create a working light bulb. Because of the format, the text is minimal even as the story covers a fair number of details. For example, a narrative box explains, Edison sent people across the world to find materials for his filaments. The pictures with this brief statement show a desert scene with cowboys examining a plant, and a tropical scene where explorers are looking at bamboo. The illustrations are good, accurately showing snapshot-like images of the appropriate time period. They are not as exciting as, say, Spiderman, but they move the reader through the story. The vocabulary is not simple, but there are so few words and so many pictures that this works as a high-low book. Back matter includes a Glossary, a Read More section, a Bibliography, an Index, and a list of Internet Sites. The sites are maintained on Capstone s Facthound Site, where URLs are checked to make sure they are both age appropriate and current. --Childrens Literature Comprehensive Database, July 2007Scott R. Welvaert lives in Chaska, Minnesota, with his wife and two daughters. He has written many children's books. Most recently, he has written about Helen Keller, the Donner Party, and Thomas Edison. Scott enjoys reading and writing poetry and stories. He also enjoys playing video games and watching the Star Wars movies with his children.; Title: Thomas Edison and the Lightbulb (Inventions and Discovery) | [

29,945 | 20 | "I received a copy of My Very Own Bible and I was delighted by the bright drawings and the child-appropriate language used to describe the stories of Jesus. I have found that many children's Bibles tell the stories of Jesus using terms that are too complicated for young minds. It will be a joy to read My Very Own Bible to my grandchildren and I intend on purchasing copies to give to the babies being dedicated in our church. Thank you for such a thoughtful presentation of Jesus." —Shannon Kearney, pastor, South Hills Church"My Very Own Bible is a great resource to use with children in our pre-school classes. The children each could have their 'very own Bible' and look at the picture of the story that we are learning for the day. The illustrations are geared to the younger children and would allow them to look at the pictures and point out things on their own that would add to their learning of the story. I like that the stories are short and would hold the attention of even the youngest listeners. I also think the children would love to have a Bible of their own that was actually used during their Sunday School class." —Lesli Klingenmeier, children's pastor, Family Fellowship Foursquare Church"I have shown My Very Own Bible to a number of our little ones at the church and they have all enjoyed the stories as well as the pictures. One of the parents commented that she enjoyed the simplicity of the words, and particularly, the pictures. She said that so many times the pictures can be a distraction for young children rather than a good illustration. I will recommend the book to other children's pastors as well as to our congregation." —Donna Brink, associate pastor, North Eugene Faith CenterBetty Fletcher is an editor, writer, and photographer with 25 years of publishing experience in the Christian trade.

29,955 | 2 | Life in Christ brings lasting joy and heartfelt strength. It is important for young women to embrace this truth and live it. The New Christian Charm Course helps girls grow deeper in their faith and develop a beautiful balance in life. With Jody Capeharts loving touch this timeless classic is revived to benefit and enrich the next generation. Every teen who goes through The New Christian Charm Course will learn to walk in a positive and faith-filled direction. I recommend it wholeheartedly for all young women.Karol Ladd, author, Power of a Positive TeenThis dynamic mother-daughter duo details how young people can avoid the most damaging teenage malady: comparing themselves to other teens. Each chapter is packed with practical step-by-step advice to help girls develop their own unique appeal and radiate the beauty of Christ.June Hunt, founder, CEO, Hope for the Heart, author of Keeping Your CoolWhen Your Anger Is Hot!Beauty and charm are in the eyes of the beholder. How correct this is when its put in the context of how God feels about His children. This tender to the core, easy-to-grasp charm course is exactly what girls need to be ready for their lives ahead. It goes back to Christian basics and progresses the students to a well-rounded, well-grounded knowledge of who they are and how they can present themselves as models of Gods beauty, charm, charisma, and dignity. Every girl and young lady you know needs to be introduced to The New Christian Charm Course through your church, athletic team, academic organization, Bible study, and everywhere girls frequent. My granddaughters and great-granddaughters can benefit from this course and share it with their children for generations to come. Oh, and I can even benefit from taking this course myself. Im sure there are things I can learn anew.Thelma Wells, president, A Woman of God Ministries and founder, Ready to Win Conferences, author of Don't Give InGod Wants You to Win!My wife, Christie, and I homeschool our 11 children (7 girls, 2 boys). We were excited to find out about The New Christian Charm Course. The course is a wonderful opportunity for girls to learn about what real beauty is. It is more than lessons on manners or etiquette. It properly focuses on following God and His wonderful wisdom in all areas of life. Girls will learn how their lives can radiate from hearts that love the Lord and desire to please Him above all else.Patrick and Christie Pettibon, parents, homeschoolersJody and Angela did an amazing, creative work on this book. They communicate beautifully the practical steps that we girls need throughout our lifetimes to be, look, and act charmingultimately radiating a timeless beauty that can only come from God.Penny Crosson, author and cosmetologist, Daily Make-up with the MasterThe New Christian Charm Course demonstrates the authors concern and care for young women. Along with directives for social, mental, emotional, and physical growth are directives for spiritual growth as well. Throughout this book, young women are taught to grow in Christ-like character, confidence, and charm. They are given guidance to improve their outside looks and their inside beauty. Both the Student book and Teachers guide are easy to follow with active participation encouraged. This would be a real plus for girls in our Christian schools. It could easily be taught as an elective, an after-school Girls Club, or during lunch time. What a blessing if every girl could take this course!Phyllis P. McCully, Ed.D., Association of Christian Schools International, Associate Regional DirectorI am very impressed and excited about your new book. It is so needed in todays society. Wow! Great job! Every media outlet promotes the view that a persons identity is valued by external factors, from clothes to makeup, from weight to hairstyle. Where are the solid, grounded teachings that promote the value of the inside of a personespecially a young teenager? How can kids today understand the beauty of charm and grace when nothing around them models such behavior? Finally there is a biblically-based, clear and concise course that is needed for every parent and child today: The New Christian Charm Course. This study includes books for both the teacher and the student that provide easy-to-follow tips, ideas, and effective tools that are missing in todays schools and in some homes. Its with great anticipation and hope for our youth that I eagerly support the messages of The New Christian Charm Course and sincerely believe that these teachings should reach the ends of the earth.Bobbye Brooks, cofounder, Daily Disciples Ministries, Inc.Jody, Angela, and Amys hearts to disciple young women really comes through in this hands-on book that will create a loving legacy for generations to come. The New Christian Charm Course is packed with practical ideas based on biblical principles that will help teach girls how to be transformed by Jesus Christ.Suellen Roberts, founder and president, Women in Christian MediaEmily Hunter has given a lifetime of ministry to youth.

29,958 | 20 | The variety of activities and story format make these studies more interesting than many other Bible study resources or curricula for children, and these studies are a great way to teach students how to really study the Bible.Cathy Duffy, CathyDuffyReviews.comThere are several things about this series of studies for children that my husband and I love. First, it teaches children at early ages how to study the Bible inductively and gives them those early foundational skills that they can carry with them for years. Second, these studies take them beyond just reading the Bible. They learn origins, definitions, time lines, history, etc. about the particular book, region, people, etc. that they are reading about giving them a broader knowledge of the text they are reading. Third, it is fun because of the modern day short stories and the activities found throughout the book. We will continue to use this book series with our children in homeschooling as they grow. We highly recommend this series of books to anyone who has children because it is a great building block to a lifetime of inductive Bible study.Gretta Johns, GrettaJohns.blogspot.comJanna Arndt, coauthor of the Discover 4 Yourself® series, including How To Study Your Bible For Kids, Wrong Way, Jonah!, and Boy, Have I Got Problems! is a Bible teacher, and children's trainer for Precept Ministries International, a ministry committed to teaching people of all ages how to study the Bible for themselves.

29,961 | 1 | "It's Bedtime for Little Monkeys is just delightful! Susie Lee Jin has come up with a wonderful board book: it's fun, kid-friendly, and beautifully executed. I am sure that, in the future, Susie's work is going to be widely recognized for its clever plots and deceptively simple, charming style."It is my pleasure to heartily recommend Susie's new book for all parents with 'little monkeys' at home." Jennifer Merz, Children's book writer and illustratorThe illustrations are bright and cheerful, and quite appealing to little hands. We are more than happy to add her books to our collection. Thank you for sharing Susie with us.Sharon Kalman, Children's Librarian, Paramus Public LibraryAs she does with her previous books, Susie Lee Jin expertly creates a board book that speaks directly to small children. My daughter might not understand everything yet, but she definitely identifies with the beautiful illustrations of little monkeys doing the same bath and bedtime routine that she does.I can tell you that my wife and I cant wait for more books by Ms. Jin in the Little Monkeys series. I only hope that the author is able to put another one out in time before my baby grows up and out of board books!Sanjay Vanguri, MD and Supriya Jagannath-Vanguri, MDOnce again Susie Lee Jin has a winner with Its Bedtime for Little Monkeys. This cute little board book is perfect for small children just getting used to a bedtime routine. I love the little extras in the pictures: a tail curled around a drinking cup, the banana tree nightlight, the little foot hanging out of bed. Children will easily identify with the necessary bedtime preparations and no doubt join in with reading the book as well. Be sure to read Good Table Manners for Little Monkeys also by this author.Gloria F. Sutton, Division Manager, Youth ServiceMy older daugher is two and a half, and she owns both It's Bedtime for Little Monkeys and Good Table Manners for Little Monkeys. She loves to have both books read to her frequently. She associates with the activities in the books, and identifies with the characters.Dhruv ToolsidasAs a child, Susie Lee Jin scribbled on sidewalks, the walls of the house, and any flat surface that seemed in want of some doodling.

Dr. McCombs has created a wonderful book for parents to introduce Jesus to their children." Dr. Scott Turansky, cofounder, National Center for Biblical Parenting"I found When Jesus Was a Little Boy a delightful read with my inquisitive young grandchildren. The words bring the young Jesus to life. The rhyme, rhythm and colorful illustrations create an appetite for the child to want to read it again and again." David J. Koetje, President/CEO, Christian Schools International"You know you've read a good book when you finish the last page and have made a friend. Children will find a dear friend in When Jesus Was a Little Boy. It's a great book! " Becky Hunter, pastor's wife, grandmother, and former teacher"When Jesus Was a Little Boy is filled with very fun and understandable words and beautiful illustrations for children about Jesus when he was little! It gives great insight into thoughts that children have about Jesus and draws great parallels to their life situations. Also, it teaches Biblical concepts in a way that is fun and meaningful for children. A must have for every child's bookshelf!" Barb Olson"The one-verse commentary on the childhood of Jesus found in Luke 2:52 stirs my imagination! What was life like for the Son of God as He lived His young life on earth? When Jesus was a Little Boy helps to satisfy my curiosity! It's a good read for young children who know Jesus and want to be more like Him." Faith Dugan"This is a sweet story by Margi. I know her heart is on every one of these pages and I can see it in every word. The beautiful message of inclusion is so needed in our world today. Thank you for this great addition to our children's department." Donna M. Kees, bookstore manager, Northland Church Bookstore"What a sweet book! My toddler loves the rhyming couplets and imaginative pictures and I love that she's hearing about Jesus. When she's older, I hope it helps her begin to understand that God knows everything we feel because he became fully man, starting as a little boy. When I'm not reading it aloud to her, I find her carrying it around and leafing through the pages on her own. What a wonderful book to add to our collection!"
