Courte biographie
[excerpt from author's website]
I write both fiction and nonfiction picture books. I am inspired by the human-animal bond. I love dogs, and most of my fiction picture books star dogs as main characters and were inspired by my late, very beloved rescue dog, Becca. My nonfiction picture books focus on the natural world. I love trees and birds and all kinds of wild creatures. I'm fascinated by the subject of urban ecology, and the ways in which wild animals have adapted to life and co-existence with humans.

A wonderful read-aloud for preschool/K: lots of active verbs, simple sentences, and boxes with additional (but not too much) info about how and why animals play - and kids play, too!

"Slip, slide, sled! Ravens play in the snow."

Back matter includes "Why play?" "Play by the rules," "Play like these animals," more fun animal facts, and further reading. Endpapers are patterned with animals (giraffes, elephants, gorillas).

"Playing makes you smarter and more reacy to face the world."… (plus d'informations)

K-Gr 4—There are too many reasons to thank Gianferrari this year, for elegant nonfiction that becomes
unforgettable, as in this compelling look at the life cycle of a mushroom. Sudyka, in lockstep, provides vibrant colors
in saturated spreads, in a book about safety and surprises in the wild.

A beautiful homage to farmers with poetic text and a nice variety of farming methods highlighted.
