About this deal

But there's no way he could have prepared for one particular discovery: a barnacle-encrusted underwater camera, with its own secrets to share . At heart it is a humorous fantasy story that also looks closely at the cyclical nature of life, as well as the ultimate power of nature.

Using his magnifying glass and microscope, he finds that the first is of a boy in old clothes from about a century ago waving. Wiesner offers another exceptional, wordless picture book that finds wild magic in quiet, everyday settings. They include purposeful writing suggestions, links to the wider curriculum so that texts can be used across other subjects, key questions as well as spelling or phonics investigations.David Wiesner is one of the best-loved and most highly acclaimed picture book creators in the world. They consist of a robot fish, an octopus reading, a pufferfish being used as a hot air balloon, turtles with cities on their backs, tiny visiting aliens, and giant starfish with islands on their backs. According to the Kirkus Reviews, “From arguably the most inventive and cerebral visual storyteller in children's literature comes a wordless invitation . Children go on to read and reflect on the book, making predictions and retelling orally and in writing.

As his parents tell him it was time to go, he decided to continue the chain by using the camera to take a picture of himself. Three of the picture books he both wrote and illustrated became instant classics when they won the prestigious Caldecott Medal: Tuesday in 1992, The Three Pigs in 2002, and Flotsam in 2007, making him only the second person in the award's long history to have won three times. One thing I found hard to explain was developing photographs in today's world but we loved the book anyway. Flotsam won the Caldecott Medal in 2007 as well as being recognised by several other awards, and was chosen as the New York Times best illustrated children’s book that year.His books have been translated into more than a dozen languages and have won numerous awards in the US and all over the globe. The final photo consists of a girl, who is holding a photo of a boy, who is holding a photo of a boy, who is holding a photo of a girl, and so on. He creates three-dimensional models of objects he can't observe in real life, such as flying pigs and lizards standing upright, to add authenticity to his drawings. David Wiesner is internationally renowned for his visual storytelling and has won the Caldecott Medal three times--for Tuesday , The Three Pigs , and Flotsam --the second person in history to do so. Es una bonita historia, con elementos de fantasía, sin texto con el que los niños y niñas, o sus madres y madres, podrán relatar lo que le ocurre al protagonista a través de las imágenes por si mismos.
