The River by Brigitte Sidjanski - ADVISABLE


Sidjanski, Brigitte and Bernadette Watts, Ill. The River. PICTURE BOOK, Minedition - Penguin, 2008.

EL (K-3) - ADVISABLE

This story tells how a trickle of water high in the mountains gradually grows into a streamlet, a stream, a river cascading down into a deep gorge, and finally part of the sea. Five little pinecones drop from a tree near the beginning and each find a favorable spot to land, the last on the seashore.

Descriptive language and beautiful illustrations make this a warm and sweet book.
