Description:Pictures come alive to the gentle sounds of nature in Mother Nature Rhymes, an animated ebook of rhymes for young children written and illustrated by D. B. Johnson, author of nine picture books, including the NY Times Bestseller Henry Hikes to Fitchburg (Houghton Mifflin, 2000). Mother Nature Rhymes adds the sound of birds and bees and rustling leaves to its "gentle animations." A page turn to a muskrat sitting beside a brook brings the sound of rippling water and birds singing in the distance. After ten seconds, the picture animates: the fishing line begins to swing in the breeze and the muskrat blinks, hardly noticing the fish darting between the rocks in the water at his feet. Perhaps he's distracted by the butterfly floating past. Johnson intentionally delays the start of each animation to give the rhymes "reading space" and to deliver a restful rhythm for bedtime reading. The sounds are real—crickets chirp, a barred owl hoots, a robin sings—and the unhurried action matches the whimsy of the rhymes: a sly fox sinks up to his chin in the mud left behind when he sells all the water in his pond. There may be a lesson here, but Johnson has kept it hidden away, as secret as the identity of Mother Nature.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
