First the Egg
Audience: Pre K / K - 2nd Grade
|
This beautiful concept book about change has vivid, textured art and meaningful cut-outs. Young children will enjoy learning about change in nature--from the egg to the chicken and from the tadpole to the frog as well as other creative processes, such as writing and painting. Many images have multiple purposes, showing the changibility and inter-relatedness of our world. Children will want to reach out and touch this art and flip pages back and forth while thinking about eggs, chickens, seeds, frogs, and words. Enjoy this intriguing and advanced addition to concept books.
