How do baby
animals travel? Some animals carry their babies on their backs, like the giant anteater,
while others grip them in their jaws, like the American alligator. Susan Stockdale’s
book, Carry Me! Animal Babies on the Move teaches kids a little more about the
animal world while captivating them with her vibrant illustrations. On each page, she
shows a different kind of animal, illustrating how that animal carries its young—whether
it carries them in a pouch or in its teeth. At the end of the book, she also features a
page of information about the animals featured—giving their names and where in the world
they’re found. She even offers a bibliography, directing the animal-interested child to
even more resources.
Carry Me! is a simple picture book, containing
only a small amount of text. Pre-school through early-elementary-aged kids will love the
book’s bright, colorful illustrations. And, while they’re hunting for the baby animals
pictured with their parents, children will also learn a little bit about the animals they
see when they visit the zoo.
Kristin Dreyer Kramer has been writing in some form or another (usually when she was supposed to be doing something else) since the ripe old age of ten—when she, her cousin, and their two Cabbage Patch Dolls formed the Poo Authors’ Club. After a short career in advertising, Kristin got sick of always saying nice things about stuff that didn’t deserve it—so now she spends her days criticizing things, and she’s much happier for it.
Since creating NightsAndWeekends.com in February of 2002, Kristin has spent her life surrounded by piles and piles of books and movies—so many that her office has become a kind of entertainment obstacle course.
As if her writing and editing responsibilities for N&W.com weren’t enough to keep her out of trouble, Kristin also hosts a number of weekly radio shows: Reel Discovery, Shelf Discovery, and On the Marquee. She’s also a proud member of the Broadcast Film Critics Association (CriticsChoice.com), the Central Ohio Film Critics Association (COFCA.org), the Online Film Critics Society (OFCS.org), and the Women Film Critics Circle (WFCC.Wordpress.com).
Kristin lives in Columbus, Ohio, with her husband, Paul, and their daughter, Anna. She welcomes questions, comments, and fan mail at kdk@nightsandweekends.com.
