Happy Kwanzaa: Titles of Interest



HAPPY KWANZAA




KWANZAA - December 26 to January 1

Kwanzaa
is a week-long celebration held in the United States and also celebrated in the Western African Diaspora in other nations of the Americas. The celebration honors African heritage in African-American culture, and is observed from December 26 to January 1, culminating in a feast and gift-giving. Kwanzaa has seven core principles (Nguzo Saba). It was created by Maulana Karenga, and was first celebrated in 1966–67.

**********************************************************


Kwanzaa Principles:
    Umoja (Unity) - To strive for and to maintain unity in the family, community, nation, and race.
    Kujichagulia (Self-Determination) - To define ourselves, name ourselves, create for ourselves, and speak for ourselves.
    Ujima (Collective Work and Responsibility) - To build and maintain our community together and make our brothers' and sisters' problems our problems, and to solve them together.
    Ujamaa (Cooperative Economics) - To build and maintain our own stores, shops, and other businesses and to profit from them together.
    Nia (Purpose) - To make our collective vocation the building and developing of our community in order to restore our people to their traditional greatness.
    Kuumba (Creativity) - To do always as much as we can, in the way we can, in order to leave our community more beautiful and beneficial than we inherited it.
    Imani (Faith) - To believe with all our hearts in our people, our parents, our teachers, our leaders, and the righteousness and victory of our struggle.

Monster Mess!

Monster Mess
 
by Margery Cuyler and Illustrated by S. D. Schindler




Crash, crash!
Stomp, stomp!
A tired monster goes up the stairs.
But






ZZZ, ZZZZ,

a boy is sound asleep. And
ick, ick
his room is not so neat ---
not neat enough for a monster to take a nap!
So
whishtt, whishtt,
the monster starts to clean.


I giggled throughout the book. The poetry was quick to showcase how quickly the monster was cleaning the occupant's room while he snoozed in his bed. What a terrible mess for such a tired monster to have to clean...::))

I loved the variation in font colors and size! This made the book more engaging and exciting to read. Even though the monster appears to be creepy and larger than life, it still funny and won't scare the youngest of readers....

I absolutely loved this book. The colors were very vibrant, friendly, and engaging. The poetry, pictures, and colors were all very creatively done!

This book would make a great story time.

This book is a great way to introduce children to cleaning their rooms and to clean up behind themselves.

What a fun read!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This book would make a fun addition to any home library for young children (adults will find it amusing also), and any school and public library.


 
 
Happy Reading!
 
Until the next time!

Children's Room this Week






My Adventures as the Fun Librarian






Being a children's librarian is so fun and exciting!  I love it when I have the opportunity to be a children's librarian in addition to my other librarian duties....

This has been a most fun and exciting time!!!!!

I have been helping children find books on super heroes:

Thor, Avengers, Superman, Teenage Mutant Turtles...

Many families were looking for books on Thanksgiving.

Two young ladies wanted the book:
There Was an Old Lady Who Swallowed a Fly by Simms Taback

A future teacher requested a book on lesson plans for 4 year olds for the children who she will be teaching. I recommend and found:

The GIANT Encyclopedia of Lesson Plans for Children 3 to 6: More Than 250 Lesson Plans Created by Teachers for Teachers [Paperback]

A mother wanted to see if we had the book:

The Road from Home: A True Story of Courage, Survival, and Hope by David Kherdian
She wanted to know who the book was about and we checked and it was about David Kherdian's late mother. What an interesting story.

I will include some Thanksgiving books later today in time for tomorrow!


Happy Reading!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Until the next time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ground Zero Dogs by Meish Goldish


 
GROUND ZERO DOGS
 
by
 
Meish Goldish
 
 
 
 
"... Shortly after the towers fell, rescuers rushed in to search for survivors. To help out, they brought along hundreds of highly trained search-and-rescue dogs. Climbing over mounds of twisted metal and sharp steel beams, these heroic dogs made up the largest canine rescue operation in U.S history."
 
What a heart warming story about the dogs who assisted with the rescue efforts during the 911 attack.
 
"The search-and-rescue dogs that looked for victims, were highly skilled. They  had been trained and tested for work at disaster sites such as earthquakes and bombings. As a result, the dogs knew how to find people buried under debris by detecting their scents. They also knew how to climb ladders, walk along beams, and crawl through dark, narrow tunnels during a search."
 
As I read this and the entire book, I kept thinking about how dogs are truly man's best friend.
 
The chapters include:
 
  • A Deadly Attack
  • Racing Against Time
  • Dogs to the Rescue
  • Searching for Survivors
  • A Special Nose
  • On the Move
  • Following Orders
  • Danger on the Job
  • Handle with Care
  • Facing Sadness
  • Easing the Pain
  • Remembering Heroes
  • Just the Facts
  • Common Breeds: Ground Zero Dogs
  • Glossary
  • Bibliography
  • Read More
  • Learning More Online
  • Index
  • About the Author 
 
 I found this heart warming book very easy to read and follow. The text was short and too the point. The photos told the story even with out the text. This book would make a great addition to personal. school, and public libraries. This would be a great story time each September 11th!!!!!!!!

I really enjoyed this book.

I was saddened when the event occurred! What a tremendous loss of life. I will never forget this event as long as I live.

This book is a wonderful tribute to all dogs who served in the rescue efforts after the 9/11 attacks. I love how this book includes a "Just the Facts" section; the common dog breeds that were used in in the search and rescue that included Border collies, Golden retrievers, German shepherds, and Labrador retrievers.

KUDOS to all the animals that served in the search and rescue and as therapy dogs!

For those who might be unfamiliar with some of the terms in the book, there is a "Glossary" near the end. If people want to read some of the books that were cited in this book, they can read the "Bibliography." And if anyone wants to read more about "Disaster Search Dogs," "Search and Rescue Dogs," and "Dog Heroes;" they can visit the "Read More" section. If you want to visit Web sites and learn more about search and rescue dogs online, you can visit the "Learn More Online" section. 

Reading this book really made my day! I absolutely LOVED it.

Even though the book is only 32 pages including the Index, it packs a plethora of information!!!!!!!!

Every time that I read this story, I hug my Figaro (Collie/Chow/Golden mix) that much closer and am so grateful to have him in my life.

Happy Reading!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Until the next time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Little Dinos Don't Bite - Written by Michael Dahl and Illustrated by Adam Record




Little Dinos
DON'T BITE

Written by Michael Dahl and
Illustrated by Adam Record


As part of the Little Dinos "hello genius"series. Little Dinos Don't Bite was quite a fun read. I giggle every time that I see and read the book. How adorable!

"Your teeth are BIG and SHARP, Little Dino!
But be careful what you bite!"

This sets that stage for the entire book. This book is cute. Dino is adorable and cuddly, but there is a message about "not biting."

We begin with Dino... "Don't BITE"

When ever my nieces and nephews come to my house, I immediately take this book out and read it to them. They are excited every time!

Capstone Publishers keep up the great work!

This is a great addition to any story time!

I would recommend this book for public, school, and home libraries!

It is a great addition to every collection for small children!

 
Until the next time!

Flood by Alvaro F. Villa






FLOOD

 
         by 
 
Alvaro F. Villa




How many of us have heard that a picture is worth a thousand or a million words? Well, that is certainly the case for the new wordless book FLOOD by Argentinean Illustrator Alvaro F. Villa.

"When a flood threatens to destroy a family's home, they must leave. what will they return to once the waters recede? Flood is an intense, beautiful book at a flood's effect on a family, carrying a simple message of hope and recovery. The explains the event in a non threatening way to start kid-friendly conversation about traumatic events."

In this book, Villa shows us how devastating a flood can be. However, every cloud has a silver lining.
I enjoyed this well designed wordless book.  What a treat to behold. I loved the colors. There were dark hues. Lots of very rich vibrant colors. The pictures were very realistic. I felt like I was there and seeing the events through the lens of a camera. I pictures were bright a hopeful with lots of light at the beginning of the book and then through foreshadowing, we could see that something dark and ominous was about to occur... We see the family packing up their belongings to move away. We see sand bags placed around the periphery of the house to keep the water away.  the entire house engulfed in water...We see the water washing away and destroying everything in the house... family pictures... chairs... tables... everything... A tree is uprooted and swept away by the rushing tide. However, through all this destruction, we turn the page and a lone robin is there assessing the damage. The house is destroyed. We see colors that are bright and hopeful. The sun shines brightly. The family approaches by car. They can see that their house is ruined. They get out of the car and see that their house is completely destroyed.

Although there are no words to describe their reaction, you can see all of their emotions on their faces and their young daughter doesn't want to see and holds on to her father. We don't need any words to tell us what the entire family is feeling as they look at what was their family home.... This is a tear jerker...... We feel for the family!

We watch as the family, friends, and others work to rebuild their home. The colors are bright. They are planting trees, fixing the roof, painting, carving wood... everything that needs to be done. Everyone is involved in the rebuilding.

I won't tell you how the book ends!

You will have to read it for yourself!

Let us know your thoughts! What did you think of as you read this book?

This book would make a great addition to any school, home, or public library. I absolutely loved this book!!!!!!!!!!! This book would make for a great story time and question and answer period.

The pictures are so spectacular that some would make for great posters!

KUDOS to illustrator Alvaro F. Villa and to capstone for printing book and sending the proceeds to families who were affected by natural disasters!!!!!!!!!!

Note: A free readers guide offering reading and discussion tips, as well as writing prompts, is available at: www.capstoneyoungreaders.com/products/floods.


Here are some reading tips provided by Capstone Group Publisher to keep in mind when sharing the story with others, particularly young readers.

Before Reading Suggestions:

Open the book so that both the back and front covers are visible as a spread. Read the title and look at the illustration. Ask the child what is going on in the picture? How does it relate to the title? What the story is about

While Reading Suggestions

Analyze the first page spread by asking what do you see? Where does the story take place? What season do you think it is? What do you see in the picture? What can you tell about the children? How does the picture make you feel? Is there anything missing from the picture?

After Reading suggestions

Re-read the story asking the reader to narrate along or alternate pages with you. Encourage dramatic expression in voice and word choice.  Have the reader summarize the sotry by identifying the sequence ofevens (beinning,, middle, end) and by using temproral words and phrases, such as first, later, after awhile, then, and the enxt to day, to expian the progression

Identify the plot elements (problem, climax resolution)
