Children's Literature

Cammy and her brother set out to pick blueberries, which their mother has promised to bake into a pie. As they walk around the pond, they stop to observe animal tracks and other evidence of animal occupation. When they find a clue, such as a feather stuck to the bark around a hole in a tree, the text asks "Who's been Here?" Turn the page and the spread reveals the answer in a big, bold, life-like painting-in this case, two baby wood ducks. Kids will learn and have a great time answering the questions. After a few readings, they will shout out the answer before the page is turned.
