| the polar express story: Annie and the Wild Animals Jan Brett, 2012-10-11 Where is Taffy? Annie looks and looks, but she can't find her marmalade cat anywhere. When Taffy doesn't come home, Annie is lonely, so she puts a corn cake at the edge of the woods. Maybe a small furry creature will come for a nibble and become her pet. Instead, a giant moose finds the corn cake. But he's much too big for a pet. So are the other animals - a grumpy bear, a snarling wildcat, and others - who show up to eat Annie's cakes until there are none left. The wild animals roar for more. What will Annie do now? Exquisite snowy landscapes filled with raucous wild animals are framed in lively borders that hint at what Taffy is up to all the way through to the end, when she brings home the best surprise Annie could have hoped for. A favorite book that young readers will want to listen to and look at over and over again. Praise for Annie and the Wild Animals 'The small glimpses of the world outside Annie's cottage move the tale forward and embellish the pages with grace and skill. 'The illustrations . . . are a veritable treasure of motifs taken from the universal tradition of folk art and crafts, including fanciful ironwork animals, a humorous mosaic cat . . . and a merry abundance of patchwork designs.' The New York Times 'The pictures hold countless surprises. Indisputably, this is a work of wonder that deserves highest honors.' Publishers Weekly |

| the polar express story: Service Learning Andrew Furco, Shelley H. Billig, 2002-03-01 The Advances in Service-Learning Research book series was established to initiate the publication of a set of comprehensive research volumes that would present and discuss a wide range of issues in this broad field called service-learning. Service-learning is a multifaceted pedagogy that crosses all levels of schooling, has potential relevance to all academic and professional disciplines, is connected to a range of dynamic social issues, and operates within a broad range of community contexts. In terms of research, there is much terrain to cover before a full understanding of service-learning can be achieved. This volume, the first in the annual book series, explores various themes, issues, and answers that bring us one step closer to understanding the essence of service-learning. The chapters of this volume focus on a broad range of topics that address a variety of research issues on service-learning in K-12 education, teacher education, and higher education. Through a wide-scoped research lens, the volume explores definitional foundations of service-learning, theoretical issues regarding service-learning, the impacts of service-learning, and methodological approaches to studying service-learning. Collectively, the chapters of the book provide varying and, at times, opposing perspectives on some of the critical issues regarding service-learning research and practice. |
