  • I Saw An Ostrich In A Chair

    Dolores D. Goldich

    Hardcover (Star Books, Aug. 30, 2005)
    New alphabet book makes L=learning and F=fun. At last, an alphabet book filled with all manner of fanciful ideas and illustrations designed to make learning fun for young readers! For each word there is a rhyme that describes some absurd or fantastical sight which is depicted in a whimsical and imaginative way. For instance, there is a pig flying through a donut hole and a monster driving a truck getting stuck in a traffic jam. Animals are discovered in unlikely places doing unexpected things, and everyday objects perform impossible acts. This book is one alphabetical surprise after another. The introduction and the ending wrap everything together in a little story. This is a great read-aloud book for teachers, parents, grandparents and others who want to spend an entertaining and worthwhile time with young children. It can also delight the child who might read it independently, aided by the illustrations to figure out the text. Although this book is intended for children from two to seven years old, someone older or younger just might take a peek and want to go from A to Z.

Dilo sets out for a meeting with a turtle at a beautiful but dangerous island. Powerful gods live there causing volcanoes to erupt. Dilo is accompanied by an unwanted pasenger - a remora or suckerfish, that attaches itself to Dilo and travels with him wherever he goes. On the way to the island they meet many creatures including a humpback whale, sealions and an incredible whale shark. After the turtle lays her eggs on the Isle of the Gods she gets into mortal danger. Can Dilo save her? An accomplished diver and photographer and founder of International Dolphin Watch, Horace Dobbs describes the ocean and its inhabitants accurately and with humour, making his books both highly entertaining and effortlessly educational.
