5 Well-Deserved Golden Stars

This was an excellent business transaction. The product was in excellent condition and arrived a timely manner. Great doing business with you, Thanks!

Relaxing book, pleasing art, fun poems...

I wrote a similar review for Steven Schnur's "Summer; an Alphabet Acrostic", and much of what I said applies here. I love to see writers take a tired old language arts exercise, or old poetry style, and spice it up a bit, or at least make it a little more interesting. These are fine, clever acrostics, yet simple enough for everyone to enjoy. The artwork is soft, yet colorful, with large, up close images, and there is a peacefulness to the overall feel of the book. I recommend this one to the kids with whom I work, and to adults! A nice book!

My kids loved it.

I saw this book displayed in a book store & I was with my kids. They both ran up to it, sat on the floor and spent the next hour glued to it. I took a curious look to find it was beautiful, educational and inspiring. I bought the book for my kids, my nieces, my nephews & my friend's kids. More books of beauty, hope & inspiration should be available for my children. Maybe these authors should consider a Silver Seeds two!

I liked this book a lot. I liked the drawings and the words. I learned alot about nature. I'm glad my mom bought this book for me. Someday I want to work in the outdoors.
