Over in the Arctic by Marianne Berkes

Learning becomes fun with Over in the Arctic: Where the Cold Winds Blow, a book about the ecosystem of the arctic. Sung to the tune of Over in the Meadow, this informative and fun rhyming format and amazing artwork will inspire children in classrooms and at home to appreciate the world around us

Teachers and parents, here is another favorite from Marianne, who has a special talent. The kids think it's entertainment while teachers and parents think it's a great lesson about the Arctic This book combines singing, counting, and full-body action with terrific cut-paper illustrations that kids will want to imitate. Over in the Arctic, the snow goose honks and the wolf howls. Children too will joyfully honk and howl while they count the baby animals and sing to the tune of Over in the Meadow. And they'll hunt for hidden animals on each page. A big plus for educators are several pages of extension ideas for curriculum and art projects as well as resources on the web and elsewhere.
