Product Description Things With Wings is part of a new innovative series of indestructible wordless picture books built specifically for the way babies read - with their hands and mouth. These books stand up to rough play and because they are waterproof they can withstand babies drool making them an excellent emergent literacy tool. Things With Wings brings together an unlikely flock of wonderful birds, insects and more. See a soaring eagle, a gliding owl, a traveling goose, a glowing firefly, a serene dragonfly, a mischievous housefly, a perky hummingbird, a self-assured bee, a peaceful dove, a playful bat, a confident crow and a glamorous butterfly. About the Author Kaaren Pixton has been making art with children for thirty years, beginning with her own children. Her grandchildren were the impetus for these books. She decided to create for them charming, indestructible books to delight their imaginations. In the last 12 years Kaaren has worked as an artist-in-residence in Portland, Oregon, schools empowering children in the creative process. Her most recent work has focused mostly on permanent installations - murals and sculptural pieces - big ideas brought to life by young minds and hands. These books are a labor of love - love of children, of the natural world, of art, of life.
