Riassunto

The friendly flapdoodle is a persistent little fellow who loves to look for rare creatures that inhabit the land. A rare creature himself, once he sets his mind on something, he won't give up until he accomplishes his goal. In this picture book geared toward preschool children ages three to five, the friendly flapdoodle's goal is to find a whiffenpoof, and he leaves no stone unturned in his search. Join the friendly flapdoodle as he explores his world to find the mysterious whiffenpoof. He visits the pasture, jungle, desert, and other exciting locales. Though he doesn't find the whiffenpoof in these places, he learns more about his world and meets other one-of-a-kind fantasy characters. The illustrated landscapes introduce children to a variety of environments and ecosystems, which will spur in them an interest in science, geography and other elements of the physical world around them. From the friendly flapdoodle's journey, young readers learn the importance of sticking to goals, and they are shown how the search for one thing can lead to the discovery of other things. The book features artistic depictions of real-world environments that most families won't find in their backyards. Just as it encourages children to explore the real world around them, this book will also inspire them to explore and create imaginary worlds of their own, while introducing them to the concepts of wordplay and new art forms.

L'autore:

A teacher in every sense of the word, Marilyn Vonalt is an artist, writer, and parent who has worked with hundreds of children during her teaching career in the public schools. She has taught art to children of all ages and has witnessed firsthand both the creative power of children's minds and the enthusiasm they express when embracing the work of others. Calling upon the teaching skills she honed during her career, and inspired by the creativity and imaginations of the many children she guided over the years, Vonalt wrote and illustrated her debut children's picture book to expose children to art and to teach them the important life lesson that the search for one thing often leads to the discovery of much more. Vonalt makes her home in Ohio, where she enjoys creating art and writing stories.
