Sterling Children's: What am I?

What am I?


Description

Young children will love this guessing game on a page! Each spread has a charming and informative little verse about a different animal, ending with the question: What am I? A vibrant, beautiful picture presents the various creatures, including an owl (I sleep all day, I fly all night, searching for food in the moonlight); a bright blue crab (I live on the beach and hide in the sand); and dazzling pink birds (You might hear us in the morning when we burst into song). Kids will want to read this again and again.

Beatrice Beebe's groundbreaking research on mother-infant communication has influenced practitioners for decades. Here she presents frame-by-frame analysis of illustrations of mother-infant interaction, identifying What am I? ebook pdf patterns of attachment exhibited in the micro-moments of real time. Inspired by the swashbuckling travelogues of Victorian diplomat Lord Dufferin, frail surburbanite Tim Moore sets out to prove his physical and spiritual worth before his sceptical Nordic in-laws by retracing Dufferin's epic voyage to Iceland and Spitzbergen. Dufferin's battles with icebergs, polar bears and the deep potations of hospitable Norsemen is a tale of derring-do; Moore's struggle against seasickness, vertigo and over-priced groceries is all too plainly one of derring-don't. As his bid to emulate the Empire tradition of fearless pluck in the face of adversity crumbles before haughty Icelandic skippers, a convoy of Norwegian Vikings and Spitzbergen's Soviet ghost towns, he finds himself transferring his affections to Dufferin's valet Wilson, a man so profoundly gloomy that 'he was seen to smile but once, when told that his colleague, the steward, had been almost thrown overboard'. As Moore says, 'Dufferin seems the personification of Kipling's 'If'. I'm more of a 'But...' man myself.' FROST ON MY MOUSTACHE is the wretched apologia of a big earl's blouse.
