Sinopse

In 'Campmates,' Kirk Munroe crafts a vivid narrative that intricately weaves themes of friendship, adventure, and the great outdoors. The story unfolds in a picturesque summer camp setting, where the complexities of adolescence are explored through rich character development and engaging dialogue. Munroe's prose reflects a keen observation of nature and childhood dynamics, drawing parallels between the characters'Äô internal struggles and the vast wilderness around them. This coming-of-age tale captures the essence of youthful exploration amidst the backdrop of the late 19th century, reflecting the era's burgeoning appreciation for outdoor activities and the emerging genre of children's literature. Kirk Munroe, an American author and pioneering environmentalist, was significantly influenced by his own experiences in nature and his commitment to fostering appreciation for the wilderness. His background in the outdoors, combined with a passion for storytelling, inspired him to write 'Campmates.' Munroe's dedication to promoting outdoor education is evident throughout his work, echoing his belief that nature plays a crucial role in personal development and societal well-being. Readers seeking an engaging and heartfelt exploration of camaraderie, self-discovery, and nature will find 'Campmates' a delightful addition to their collection. Munroe's storytelling not only entertains but also encourages a deeper connection with the natural world, making this book a perfect companion for young adventurers and adults alike.

Wait...Who Got Goosed? is a contemporary, remixed version of Mother Goose's memorable fables about our human foibles. As in the original rhymes, modern day characters' struggles with questionable judgment result in predictable, and sometimes messy, outcomes. Just what is it that causes us to ignore cautionary tales of old and continue the cycle of having to learn (or not learn) from our own mistakes? 
Having the opportunity to rewrite these familiar lyric stories about missteps through a more humanitarian lens made the journey of writing a modern version of stories from the past especially enjoyable. The Companion Activity Book offers the same potential wordplay and enjoyment for young and young-at-heart poets alike. Readers of all ages, including those familiar with the original Mother Goose rhymes, will enjoy this new iteration of poems that add insight and poignancy to lessons of humility and kindness. Many poems highlight the potential favorability of outcomes when responded to with compassion. So often, serious topics shared through poetry and humor can make our shortcomings a bit easier to digest.
