Building, baking, folding, drawing, shaping . . . making something with your own hands is a special, personal experience. Taking an idea from your imagination and turning it into something real is satisfying and makes the maker proud. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |

So, you can imagine my delight in discovering Amy Ludwig VanDerwater's new book of children's poems.
Today's child grows up surrounded by technology. Think back to days of creating our own fun instead of relying on a screen to provide entertainment. Amy includes everything from thumbprint pictures, clay, and cookies to sock puppets, forts, and shadow shows—and more. It made me a bit nostalgic, but for children now, these ideas may be novel!
"Maker" begins the collection and sets the inventive tone. The poems that follow are of various forms, breaking the book up nicely as it moves along. (The layout of "Knitting" caught my eye in particular!) The clever collages of the Lou Fancher and Steve Johnson illustrator team are the perfect pairing for these energetic, imaginative poems.
Adding this one to our elementary school library immediately. ( )
