Father-daughter duo Madeline Moser (author) and Barry Moser (illustrator) not only know the Aardwolf, but 19 other unknown mysterious creatures, including a babirusa, an emperor tamarin and a zorilla. Which are all creatively captured in this amazing book.

Average review score: 

For the Good of the Earth and Sun is Good for All!I am a senior studying elementary education at the University of Florida. I practically used this wonderful book as my bible for methods and strategies of how to teach poetry to young and/or reluctant students.
This book is a clear and concise journey of how to "prepare the soil" and get children writing poetry! The book includes extensive examples of student writing and is highly recommended to anyone teaching (or who is planning to teach) a language arts curriculum, students, and even parents who want to encourage the writing of their children.

Average review score: 

Impress Your Colleagues, Enthrall Your StudentsThe sample lesson plan at the front of the book is in outline form for the entire unit and connects across the curriculum. Connections to Vocabulary, Science, Math, Culture, Art, and Logical Thought Process are included. Provided are testing materials to determine the level of learning (answer keys are included.) I was looking forward to teaching this unit, but alas, I did not have the opportunity to teach this grade level, (other than student teaching.)
With a scanner these lessons could easily be adapted to the computer.
