Kandu and the Magic Meadow : With Companion DVD

Kandu, a curious toucan, longs for more color in his dark rainforest home. He takes a risk and explores a colorful new world that transforms him and his toucan friends forever. This happy tale of discovery, changes, and acceptance engages children's creativity with art, science, social studies, drama, and language activities associated with the story. The Companion DVD has a multimedia rendition of the story, and a visit with the author as she encourages children to write and illustrate their own imaginative stories. A lively 8-year-old demonstrates related projects: color mixing, the color wheel, and Magic Meadow activities for parties and classrooms. The author, an award-winning teacher, includes on her website dozens of additional learning and play activities families and classrooms can use with the book.
