Calbert and His Adventures

For years before this book was published, Carolee Henney's students loved hearing these adventure stories read to them. The friendship which develops quickly between Calbert, the handsome little hoppy-toad, & Morse, the grey mouse, appeals to elementary school children. Children in that age group like Calbert & his friends because they are interested in animals. As the protective wings of Mrs. Bluebird guard Calbert safely through the night, little readers identify with Calbert's need for comfort, warmth, & safety. Children can hardly wait after each chapter's ending to find out what happens next in Calbert's adventures. An elementary school librarian said, "THE ADVENTURES OF CALBERT will delight its readers...a magical reading experience." Another school librarian said, "Calbert speaks to us of warmth, respect, & helpfulness." An elementary school reading specialist: "I strongly recommend this book to parents & classroom teachers."Henney, Carolee W. is the author of 'Calbert and His Adventures' with ISBN 9780962658006 and ISBN 0962658006.
