Picture Book of the Day<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Seabird in the Forest<\/a>
\nby Joan Dunning (Author, Illustrator)<\/p>\n

Booktalk:<\/strong> Until the 1970s, no one knew where the marbled murrelet laid its eggs. The little bird seemed to live entirely at sea.<\/p>\n

Snippet:<\/strong> For thousands of years murrelet chicks have simply waited, all alone, high above the forest floor, waited for their paernts to return each day with a little silver fish…waited a whole month to grow up…and so will this one.

\"\"<\/p>\n

Seeing Red: The True Story of Blood<\/a>
\nby Tanya Lloyd Kyi (Author) and Steve Rolston (Illustrator)
\n122 pages<\/p>\n

Booktalk:<\/strong> Gory and fascinating (and if you’re a vampire, delicious) blood is at the heart of human life. Take a stab at understanding this vital fluid via a mix of science, history, pop culture, and even cookery.<\/p>\n

Snippet:<\/strong> Today the average grade four student probably understands more about blood than the world’s most educated doctor did 500 years ago. Back then, blood was seen as one of many important but mysterious boldily fluids–something doctors tried to measure and regulate.
