Lucky to Live in Alaska (Arcadia Kids)

What do you get when you cross a read-aloud storybook with a write-in memory book? Magic moments between kids and adults! The Lucky to Live in Alaska book is the perfect tool to jump-start meaningful conversations between generations. Read-aloud rhymes set up interesting topics. Then write-in prompts invite children to record their own views to create a personal Last Frontier State keepsake. The real gift lies in the interactive nature of the book as it offers the perfect opportunity for adults to share their own stories and wisdom about such issues as friendship, community, team spirit, and other topics that help develop a child's social and emotional skills. Customized Alaska content--from favorite local cuisine (smoked salmon) to interesting attractions (Denali National Park)--provides an even more personalized experience. Kate B.
