Around One Log Summary

Around One Log: Chipmunks, Spiders, and Creepy Insiders by Anthony D. Fredericks

Introduce kids to the critters that make their home in a decaying old tree with this beautifully illustrated and accessible picture book. Perfect for preschool and kindergarten classrooms and science curriculums for the study of nature, forests, trees, and life cycles.

An ancient oak is hit by a lightening strike, and tumbles to the ground! But don't worry-the tree is now home to all kinds of critters. Introduce young readers to termites, salamanders, garter snakes, and more animals and insects that make the rotting tree their home with a lighthearted building rhyme and realistic illustrations.

Backmatter includes:

Field Notes: information and fun facts about each animal mentioned in the book

Activities and Projects: outlines for education projects for classrooms and families such as a day-in-the-life of an animal journal exercise, creating a picture collage of animal cut-outs from magazines, and a photo journal

About Anthony D. Fredericks

Anthony D. Fredericks is a veteran nature explorer. He grew up on the beaches of southern California and during summers camped (and swatted mosquitoes) in the Sierra Nevada mountains of eastern California. Later he attended high school and college in Arizona where he often spent his free time trekking through the Sonoran desert. Now Tony explores the hillside in south-central Pennsylvania where he and his wife reside and frequently hikes the mountains of western Colorado where his granddaughter lives. A former classroom teacher and reading specialist, he is Professor of Education at York College. As the author of more than 30 children's books (some about buggy things) he is a frequent visitor to schools around the country, where he shares the wonders of nature with a new generation of naturalists. Jennifer DiRubbio is both a passionate artist and an avid environmentalist. She has been active as an artist for several organizations that promote nature and a healthy planet. Jennifer graduated with a BFA from Pratt Institute in 1992. She keeps her home and studio in Merrick, New York, as green and environmentally sound as possible, where her husband and two young children also work and play.
