Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. Beautiful collage illustrations take the reader on an extraordinary visual journey to a primeval wilderness, which like so many others is now threatened. "My father says there has been a forest here for over a hundred million years," Jeannie Baker's young protagonist tells us, and we follow him on a visit to this tropical rain forest. We walk with him among the ancient trees as he pretends it is a time long ago, when animals that are now extinct or rare lived in the forest and aboriginal children played there. But for how much longer will the forest still be there, he wonders? Don't miss this "exquisitely wrought work with a simple, profound message" (Publishers Weekly). Baker, Jeannie (illustrator).…

Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. "A story about the small things in one neighborhood--their fragility, strength, and connection--and their power to make a difference." (Booklist starred review) This powerful wordless picture book with beautiful collage illustrations can be "enjoyed independently or incorporated into units on the environment, communities, or artistic technique," according to School Library Journal. "A book to treasure." In Jeannie Baker's striking, natural collages, an urban community reclaims its land. A city street becomes a living, thriving neighborhood--a place to call home. Little by little, baby Tracy grows. She and her neighbors begin to rescue their street. Together, children and adults plant grass and trees and bushes in the empty spaces. They stop the cars. Everything begins to blossom. As an author/artist note states: "The choice is ours to make--having simply a place to live or, by understanding the land and caring for it, belonging to a living home." A family. A house. A neighborhood. A place to play. A place to feel safe. Baker, Jeannie (illustrator).…

Hardback. Zustand: Good. An innovative, two-in-one picture book follows a parallel day in the life of two families: one in a Western city and one in a North African village.  Somewhere in Sydney, Australia, a boy and his family wake up, eat breakfast, and head out for a busy day of shopping. Meanwhile, in a small village in Morocco, a boy and his family go through their own morning routines and set out to a bustling market. In this ingenious, wordless picture book, readers are invited to compare, page by page, the activities and surroundings of children in two different cultures. Their lives may at first seem quite unalike, but a closer look reveals that there are many things, some unexpected, that connect them as well. Designed to be read side by side -- one from the left and the other from the right -- these intriguing stories are told entirely through richly detailed collage illustrations. Baker, Jeannie (illustrator). …
