Over and Under the Pond

A mother and son on a canoeing adventure discover a multitude of plants and animals that live over and under a pond. They experience the features, growth, and changes of animals, including beavers, minnows, and bullfrogs. This picture book, suitable for K-4, is useful as a read-aloud, for partner or solo reading, and to support project-based learning. The detailed and innovative illustrations reflect different perspectives—underwater, on top of the pond, in the sky—and effectively convey the theme, and support learning in an engaging manner.
