Robin Nelson's careers have always kept her surrounded by books―as an elementary teacher, working at a publishing company, and now working as a school library media specialist. But her favorite job is writing books for kids. She has written many nonfiction books for children. She lives with her family in Minneapolis.
PreSchool-Grade 1-Small-format beginning readers with just the right dose of fact and fun. Simple sentences and bold (though sometimes grainy) photographs capture the essence of different kinds of days. Each page includes one line of text and a full-color picture. Through repetition and simple sentence structure, the author encourages students to develop some rhythm in their reading while learning a few facts. ("When it is rainy, flowers grow. We see a rainbow. When it is rainy-.") In addition, youngsters will relate to the pictures of children running through puddles, playing in the snow, and eating ice cream. Two pages of facts, an index, and a glossary in the back of each book help develop a familiarity with the components of nonfiction without seeming cumbersome. These titles will be of particular use in classrooms.
