New Author Study Nancy Carlson

About Nancy Carlson's Books 
Nancy believes that life should be fun for everyone, but especially for children. This optimistic message permeates her picture books and provides a positive counterpoint to much of what children are influenced by in today's society. Her characters aren't always perfect. They often have fears, anxieties, and disabilities. Through her books, kids learn to cope with different challenges. They can learn that they don't have to be perfect to be a good person. Her characters also convey positive messages without being "preachy". They gently remind children what is right.
Reading Response: Write and draw something special about you! What do you like best about you?

Reading Response: If we had Show In Tell in KC what important item would you bring in? A few children really want to have a Show In Tell Day !
