Laurie Carlson
Topeka Bindery, 2003
Laurie Carlson is Outstanding
I have just entered the field of preschool and was disappointed in the books for activities until I found Carlson. Her book isn't full of kiddie graphics as if the kids were reading, her instructions are clear and careful. This book is fun because it gives so many ideas of using things around the house. I liked this book so much that I bought 50 to give to preschool teachers coming to a ...

Jane E. Ansley
Paleontological Research Inst, 2000
Essential Earth Science Resource!
The Teacher Friendly Guide is an outstanding resource for Earth Science Teachers in the Northeast who want to engage their students with relevant and meaningful material. The list of resources at the end of each chapter is worth the price of the book. No major geology text or national reference can match the depth and detail presented here.
