FATHERS AND BABIES: HOW BABIES GROW AND WHAT THEY NEED FROM YOU FROM BIRTH TO 18 MONTHS
Marzollo, Jean
1993 9383 <>strong> Fathers and Babies is the one and only baby care book written expressly for fathers. Fathers and Babies is a light and reassuring introduction into the world of fatherhood. Fathers today want to be, and are expected to be, involved parents who bond with their children and help them thrive. Yet, sadly, many new fathers feel excluded from the loop of child care. Because most fathers don't get to spend as much time with their babies as mothers do, men don't learn the everyday skills of baby care. When they attempt to help out during evenings and on weekends, they frustrate themselves and those they are trying to help. Instead of becoming closer to their children, many fathers withdraw, conceding the domain of parenting to mothers. This is unfair to mothers, fathers, and their children. What fathers desperately need is a special baby care training manual that will teach them how to fix a bottle, soothe a bay in the middle of the night, and help a child learn to talk. Fathers who are primary caregivers gain these skills easily. But most fathers are not primary caregivers; and because they can't spend more time with their children, they need help in order to become the great fathers they want to be. " Fathers and Babies" provides step-by-step instructions accompanied by humorous, real-life pictures that show fathers what to do. The book also explains the important perceptual abilities, language skills, muscular coordination, strength, and concepts of trust and self-esteem that babies need to develop during the first eighteen months of life. The more fathers know about these critical developments, the more fathers will be able to help theirbabies achieve and the more worthy they will feel as parents. 235 delightfully illustrated pages. Author Biography: Jean Marzollo is the author of many books for children, including Home Sweet Home, Sun Song, and the Growing Tree title Do You Know New? She lives in Cold Spring, NY.

I SPY SCHOOL DAYS: A BOOK OF PICTURE RIDDLES
Marzollo, Jean
1995 10827 ABOUT THE BOOK I Spy School Days: A Book of Picture Riddles FROM THE PUBLISHER With more than 2.5 million copies sold of the first five books in the series, I Spy has proven itself a winner. The best and brightest yet, I Spy School Days is filled with glorious, color, two-page photographic spreads which feature brainteasers to solve in a blackboard scene, hundreds of tiny objects to ponder in a classification puzzle, Rube Goldberg contraptions to figure out, and more. FROM THE CRITICS Publishers Weekly Fans of the elegantly energetic I Spy picture-puzzle series may wonder how Wick could top the lavish sets he created for I Spy Funhouse and I Spy Mystery. Here, however, he and Marzollo surpass their previous achievements-by reversing direction. While they stick to the same formula (under a full-bleed photo of artistically arrayed objects, verse challenges the reader to find various objects), this time they eschew special effects and razzle-dazzle compositions in favor of sunny spreads showcasing, for the most part, common items. Most sets are basic, from a classroom blackboard to a playground floor to a homemade puppet theater. But each apparently simple spread wordlessly and playfully reinforces learning skills. In a spread featuring plastic numerals from one to 12, for example, each number is surrounded by related objects; a building block emblazoned with "X" and a toy clown wagging the splayed fingers on his hands are among the items illustrating the number 10. The puppet theater is hung with cardboard cutouts of figures and props from classic fairy tales. Other sets teach such concepts as sets and patterns, cleverly integrating items seen on previous spreads. By stressing the value of everyday objects, this ingenious volume will encourage readers to look closely at not just the pictures, but at their own surroundings. Ages 3-8. (Sept.) Children's Literature - Beverly Kobrin Walter Wick and Jean Marzollo's creations exist only as long as it takes to photograph them. In their newest collaboration, I Spy: School Days the assemblages include collections of preschool/kindergarten blocks and other building toys and an assortment of miniatures placed, " la Venn diagrams, within hula hoops. Ms. Marzollo's riddles identify specific items "spy-ers" can locate. Extra riddles, suggestions for classroom activities, and the story behind this volume's origin wrap up the intriguing treat. Open it up, one spread per week, in a classroom window or on a hallway or library bulletin board so that youngsters passing by can seek the items Ms. Marzollo-or a class riddler-pinpoints. School Library Journal K-Gr 3-This riddle book in verse follows the now-familiar format of large, oversized pages chock-full of objects and realia. This time, the double-page spreads are devoted to unifying activities or themes associated with school-chalkboard, a puppet show, art or science classrooms, a playground, etc. The full-color photographs are sharp, bright, and busy. Some of the items that youngsters are asked to locate are quite small, and the rabbit on the chalkboard has been almost erased and is very faint. Still, this will be a fun addition for children who appreciate riddles and for those who enjoy poring over pictures.-Susan Chmurynsky, East Kentwood Freshman Campus, MI BookList - Janice Del Negro In the sixth book in the I Spy series, colorful, eye-catching compositions are once again the high note. Jointly designed by Marzollo and Wick, the sets for the illustrations are wonderfully imaginative, and Wick's photographs are brilliant and sharp. Valentines, building blocks, puppet theaters, and a wealth of theme-related doodads are combined to make school look very appealing. This is essentially an interactive lap book that lends itself to constructive conversation as adults and children read the clue-filled rhymes and look for objects on the delightfully crowded pages. The book even includes some "extra credit" riddles. A visually stunning book, this is a good choice for a day-care library, the easy nonfiction shelf, or a concept book c Scholastic, Inc. 0-590-48135-5 / 9780590481359

Marzollo, Jean
1996 900353 Kindergarten-Grade 4; Another brilliant collaboration by this incredibly innovative duo. This time, the puzzles take place in and around a haunted house (an altered Victorian dollhouse).

(How the miniature cobwebs were simulated remains a mystery.) Using a spooky sky for a backdrop, various props, and some very creative lighting, Wick achieves a definite dramatic effect. Marzollo's clever rhyming puzzles add great flair, and, as in the earlier titles, readers are encouraged to solve more riddles at the end and to make up selections of their own. This book is fun for a wide range of ages, as the picture riddles vary in difficulty and sophistication. A must, in multiple copies, for any Halloween collection.

Youngsters who enjoy a challenge will delight in this latest I Spy offering, in which rhyming riddles invite readers to locate various objects in the accompanying picture.

Some objects are easy to see, ensuring even the youngest child some success. But there are always one or two items in each scene that require a sharp eye and a lot of patience. "Extra Credit Riddles," found at the end of the book, offer more challenges, as do the appended suggestions for creative writing tie-ins. With little actual reading required, the book will be ideal for encouraging reluctant readers or children who have reading disabilities. I SPY - "School Days" - School is open for I SPY fans!

I SPY: A BOOK OF PICTURE RIDDLES
Marzollo, Jean
1992 16770 I spy... a little baby's footprint, a heart-shaped box, a silver jack, a train track, a comb, a button, a pine cone... and hundreds upon hundreds of other small, interesting objects. Here is the original I Spy picture book, the one that launched the very popular series by rhyme-ster Jean Marzollo and photographer Walter Wick. Each sizeable two-page spread features an assortment of crisply photographed items, along with a rhyming litany that serves as a riddle for readers to solve: I spy a snake, a three-letter word, And flying underneath, a great white bird; Nine gold stars, a blue tube of glitter, One clay cat, and a six-legged critter. The beauty of these books, which include I Spy Funhouse and I Spy Gold Challenger, is that when the initial riddle is solved, there are still extra credit riddles in the back, as well as countless other games of varying degrees of difficulty any imaginative parent or child can create. Readers of all ages, distracted by the bright, eye-catching objects, may find the challenge surprisingly difficult, and will delight in finding something new with every reading.

Dozens of brightly colored objects of all shapes and sizes, some conventional and some not, are scattered helter-skelter across 13 spreads. Balls and skittles spill over racquets; flowers, leaves and stones are set out for a nature picnic; a sandy scene depicts fish, shells and zany sunglasses. A rhyming riddle on each page invites children to dive in and hunt down certain objects, and this is merely the beginning. Variations on the search are limitless, as are the possibilities for learning--colors, numbers, shapes. The challenge is surprisingly great.

JONAH AND THE WHALE (AND THE WORM)
Marzollo, Jean
2004 16540 From School Library Journal PreSchool-Grade 3. ;Marzollo continues her series of accessible retellings of Bible stories. After God releases Jonah from the whale, the prophet remains reluctant to fulfill God's mandate that he preach to the Ninevites. He finally does so, and although they change their ways, Jonah still feels that they should be punished for their past sins. As he waits outside the city, hoping that God will destroy at least part of it, he observes the actions of a humble cutworm and learns a lesson about God's love that convinces him to forgive his enemies. The expressive watercolor illustrations and gentle text provide a solid starting point for collaborative reading and discussion. The text alternates between omniscient narration and dialogue between Jonah and God. Tiny octopuses in the margins also comment on the tale, foreshadowing events and prompting page turns. This book is a fun, unpretentious take on a favorite old story. Little, Brown Young Readers 0-316-74134-5 / 9780316741347
