Whether it’s An Aardvark that searches in the bark for bugs in the dark, or A Goat that ate her coat right off the boat, whatever Lily sees in nature, it somehow magically rhymes, and she would like nothing more than to share her adventures with everyone, who might in turn learn something along with her.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhether she travels by skateboard, bike or bus, she always stays safe, and friends and other good people love to help her.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"clearfix colelem\" id=\"u41310-33\" data-muse-uid=\"U41310\" data-muse-type=\"txt_frame\" data-ibe-flags=\"txtStyleSrc\"\u003e\n\u003cp id=\"u41310-2\"\u003eEvery teacher of young children knows the powerful tool that playfulness can be.  The joys of rhyming, alliteration and silly speculation are some of the best teaching tools for literacy, and some of the most fun to engage in! This joyfulness, along with a deep appreciation for nature’s wisdom and wonder, are all present in Lily’s adventures. The illustrations reflect the spirited verse and the sense of wonder that Lily embraces. Dreamy backgrounds create a sense of being completely present and attention is given to details that are often noticed only by the curious gaze of a child out in the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp id=\"u41310-4\"\u003e– Sarah Monroe, Waldorf Teacher, Corvallis, Oregon\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp id=\"u41310-5\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp id=\"u41310-8\"\u003e\u003cspan id=\"u41310-6\"\u003eAn invitation to creativity!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp id=\"u41310-11\"\u003e\u003cspan id=\"u41310-9\"\u003e– Marco Elliott\u003c\/span\u003e, parent, printmaker, painter and author, former art and graphic design teacher, Paris, France, and Venice, California\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp id=\"u41310-14\"\u003eThis inspired work will grab children’s imagination while building bonds with new words and playfully impressing our human call to steward all of earth’s living things!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp id=\"u41310-17\"\u003e\u003cspan id=\"u41310-15\"\u003e–Dave Nissen\u003c\/span\u003e, Founder, Wanderlust Tours, and proud parent, Bend, Oregon\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp id=\"u41310-21\"\u003eI\u003cspan id=\"u41310-20\"\u003e feel confident that this special book will become a favorite of children, parents and teachers.
