Description:
“Mr. Pish, the adventurous Jack Russell Terrier, leads readers on an
expedition into the forest in Mr. Pish's Woodland Adventure. With full color
photographs and engaging text geared to promote outdoor learning, Mr. Pish
shows how easy it is to experience nature no matter where you live. Mr. Pish
even teaches kids how to make their own Great
Explorer's scrapbook! Best viewed on a full-color reader.”
Author:
“K.S. Brooks has been writing for over thirty years. An award-winning
author and photographer, she has written over 30 titles, is currently the
administrator for the superblog IndiesUnlimited, and is founder of ‘Authors for Hurricane Sandy Library Recovery’
and the ‘Liberty Library’ for soldiers and veterans. Mr. Pish is a curly-haired
Jack Russell terrier who has traveled the USA and Canada to spread the word
about outdoor learning and literacy.”

Appraisal:
Mr. Pish has an infectious personality that readily draws the reader
in and includes you in the dialogue as he explores. He also has rules to follow
while exploring; take plenty of water and snacks, stay on the path, and always stay
in sight of an adult. The adult is basically the pack mule to carry everything
for you on your adventure. Never go on an exploring adventure alone. Also, pay
attention to your surroundings. If you don’t think you see anything stop, look,
and listen for a while. Check out the flora, fauna, and trees.
This book is loaded with gorgeous pictures of wildlife, critters, and
Mr. Pish. I found this book a treasure trove of information written simply
enough for children to understand and engage with. I think any of Mr. Pish’s
series books would make a wonderful addition to any library, be it a primary
school, public, or a child’s own personal library.
FYI:
Best viewed on a full-color device. Mr. Pish's Woodland Adventure is book one in MR. PISH BACKYARD
ADVENTURE SERIES. Book two is The Mighty
Oak and Me.
