Sylvia Finds a Way - Stephanie Shaw - Bog - West Margin Press - Plusbog.dk

The story of how one small creature can have a powerful effect for her and her friends using the power of restraint, kindness, and respect. 2023 Nominee, Patricia Gallagher Children’s Choice Award "Could there be a more Oregon picture book than one starring a slug who does yoga? Oregon author Stephanie Shaw''s quirky protagonist stars in a story in which her sly sweetness carries the day when her animal friends'' speed, strength and size all fail against a protective gardener. Mixed-media illustrations by Fiona Lee enhance Sylvia''s elegant solution."— The Oregonian "Shaw''s evocative descriptions of the flora and fauna will engage young readers and the author''s note gives factual information about slugs and their value to the garden''s ecosystem. Lee''s mixed-media illustrations have a sophisticated palette with an aesthetic that grown-up fans of Anna Rifle Bond will appreciate. The balance between boisterous action and meditative zen makes this title a standout among yoga picture books. A fun, frolicking tale, and welcome addition to picture book collections, that sneaks in an etiquette lesson without feeling overly didactic."— School Library Journal "Confident in her own brand of quiet strength, Sylvia''s way teaches kids that there are different kinds of strength. And that often, the best way to solve a problem is not with physical strength, but with patience and words. Stephanie Shaw and Fiona Lee''s depiction of this unlikely hero is sure to find fans among yoga and garden enthusiasts. Lee''s expressive art is a perfect complement to Shaw''s simple and satisfying story. The earthy color palette allows Sylvia''s ''slime'' trail of silvery, shiny gloss to take center stage, keeping even the youngest readers entranced. Throw in some fun yoga poses, and this book makes a delightful, interactive read-aloud."— Good Reads with Ronna "This cute story is brought to life by adorable pictures (the people and animals are very expressive) and even the shiny slime trail Sylvia leaves behind."— Youth Services Review Sylvia is as small as your pinky finger and as slow as a. . . slug! She can''t run or jump or fly like her animal friends. They hatch a plot to sneak into the bountiful garden. But Sylvia has her own way of doing things—one that will make all the difference.

Paul Bunyan - James Stevens - Bog - West Margin Press - Plusbog.dk

Paul Bunyan - James Stevens - Bog - West Margin Press - Plusbog.dk

Paul Bunyan (1925) is a novel by James Stevens. Written from a lifetime of experience as a logger and historian of the logging industry, Paul Bunyan is a masterful take on one of the defining legends of the Pacific Northwest. Combining his own stories with those he heard at logging camps as a young boy, Stevens earned a reputation as a leading folklorist of his time whose novels and songs continue to resonate decades after his death. “He could whip his weight in wildcats, could pull clouds out of the sky, or chew up stones, or tell the whole world anything!” Larger than life, Paul Bunyan is a logger whose legend began with the Papineau Rebellion of 1837. As a defender of young Queen Victoria’s right to the forests of Canada, Bunyan fought fiercely against French loggers alongside his comrades armed with mattocks, axes, and hooks. Emerging victorious, he settles down to a life in nature, building his logging camp and roaming the woods with his trusted blue ox Babe. From his boyhood in the lumber camps of Idaho to his time as a logger in Oregon, James Stevens collected the tales of Bunyan from the more experienced men of the woods, eventually becoming the foremost expert on one of the Pacific Northwest’s greatest heroes. This edition of James Stevens’ Paul Bunyan is a classic work of American literature reimagined for modern readers.
