Two New Children's Books About the Rainforest Emma's Jungle Adventure by Mary Morsilli About the author: When Mary's daughter became ill, she helped her daughter with a school assignment. With this assignment, Mary discovered a talent for writing children's stories. Mary born in Toronto, Ontario (Canada) now lives in Caledon, Ontario with husband and three children. Mary began carrying out school presentations for children preschool to 11 years old and has also worked with grade 8 students and taught them what it takes to get a book published from start to finish. This lead to work the summer programs at many libraries with theme of "THE LOST WORLD". Mary revolved her summer presentations around the preservation of the rainforest. Mary has been teaching the children whats been happening to the rainforests, the importance of the rainforests, and how we can help to preserve the rainforests-Which now put her on a mission to work with organizations that work with preserving the rainforests. Mary wants to be able to help in any way she can. The book can be purchased at www.giantbeaver.com as well as www.amazon.com. Patricia Bunk is a professional artist and painter. Her education includes a foundation from California College of Arts and Crafts, The University of Massachusetts, and Smith College. Pat's teaching approach: My personal approach to education concentrates in Fine Art Integrating both Literacy and Science (Botany), Technology, Music and Social Studies into my fine arts curriculum this school year. We will begin to explore the plant life of the rain forest as well as many animals and insects. We will study line shape texture form and color creating a book on rain forest animals and insects. Each student will have an opportunity to submit one drawing to integrate this into my book to tell a tale about the rain forest animals and the tribe. My first book about the rain forest will integrate literacy into my curriculum "The Golden People Keepers of the rain forest" By Patricia Bunk (Xlibris publishing) as a literacy connection.
