A Message for Ann
Jennifer Leslie
Paperback
(Jet Publications Inc., March 15, 2014)
This children's picture book is appealing to both boys and girls, ages 3 to 10, and features original, untouched photographs to complement the text. Ann has received a mysterious airmail letter. The post mark is from Hawaii . . . Who could it be from? Ann's message in a bottle has been carried by the North Pacific Current to Maui, Hawaii, where Keoki was thrilled to find it, and to reply. How will Ann deal with her would-be 'keypal'? What is the safest way to communicate with a stranger, especially when he is a bit pushy? Sequel to Ann at the Ocean, this important discussion about stranger safety and modern electronic communication is delivered with a touch of science in Jennifer Leslie's signature light and humorous way. (All Ann books can be read alone, or in any sequence.) "Engaging, charming, delightful, adventurous, creative" are a few of the descriptions our readers use for the Ann books by Jennifer Leslie. Ann becomes a friend to our young readers, who cherish her books. A "For Discussion" section included to encourage critical thinking. A map of the Pacific Ocean showing the North Pacific Current is also included. The full-color photographs are fascinating to children. Page design encourages left-to-right, top-to-bottom reading skills.
