"Over in the Ocean" Book Connections

February 28, 2010

Yesterday I participated in the Treasure Coast Annual Children’s Conference, similar to the one I did earlier this month at Sanford Community College, for early childhood educators. I am always amazed and delighted at how many people are familiar with my “Over in the Ocean, in a Coral Reef.” (A Scholastic reprint makes it more affordable at $4.95, and it was featured in their See-Saw and Firefly Book Clubs.) Dawn Publications has linked extension activities that I wrote for that book to their website. There are 20 “story stretchers” that can be downloaded. Enjoy!
