Sixth grade gets off to a horrible start when history teacher Mr. Tupkin gives the class an assignment to write journals that will be buried in a time capsule at the end of the year. Things get even worse when his dad makes him take his neighbor's old shopping cart to school, earning him the nickname "Cartboy." What else could possibly go wrong? Read Hal's journal to find out! Filled with photos, drawings, and timelines, Hal's time capsule journal chronicles a year in the life of the hopelessly hapless Cartboy.

Combining the curiosities of nature and the joy of crafts-science and art together-this delightful book and press introduces children to the centuries-old tradition of plant collecting and preservation. With its convenient handle and compact size, the press is specially designed to fit little hands.

Kids learn the Wildflower Credo, which plants to avoid, and discover projects and activities that include making pressed-flower pictures, floral stationery, and an herbarium. Suitable for ages 6-12.
