An Octopus jets under the sea.......2004-11-07
An easy read for the beginning reader with the illustrations to guide the non-reader along with vivid and detailed illustrations of life under the sea.
The rhyming text is quite amusing that takes the reader on a fast journey along with the Octopus Under The Sea. You can count all eight arms on one page and watch him eat a shrimp and crab on the next. It seems sharks like to eat Octopus but they are able to shoot out water to make their escape. At other times they shoot out black ink, faster than some can blink.
In each illustration the Octopus Under The Sea is a different shaded Octopus. One is set in a grayish tone, another is speckled red and orange with another being green. The shape of them reminds me of a spider walking along with its legs. The places under the sea that an Octopus calls home are caves and holes below the ocean waves.
The illustration of the black ink resembles a charcoal color and it seems like you could touch it and feel the heat. There are ways an Octopus can camouflage in the sea when someone dangerous approaches. The sea life is plentiful with purple starfish, red berries and greenery. It would be nice to know what the names are of these items under the sea because it is worth noting and learning.
Octopus Under The Sea is an enjoyable read for my son who likes to stop and discuss what the Octopus is doing and predict what the next page will have or who will try to eat him. " An Octopus eats, hides, and flees in every one of Earth's blue seas." This would serve as an introductory book on the Octopus and spark the discussion on sea life and how colorful it is down below. My son is very happy to be able to read Octopus Under The Sea on his own and share with his class as a reminder of their class trip.

Easily Learned Math Concept While Enjoying the Story.......2002-02-16
My son and daughter - aged 5 and 7 love this beautiful little book. The concept of continuous doubling of the number of ants that keep returning to the nest intrigues them. Although the book stops at 512, my children insisted that we keep doubling the number "up to infinity". Well, we kept on doubling until we ran out of paper!! The illustrations are wonderful, complementing this terrific children's treasure.
a wonderful story/math concept book for young children.......2002-02-05
my four- and five-year old children love this book. it's one they request over and over again when it's story-time at home after dinner or at bed time. they love the little ants who invade the neighborhood picnic and discover a treasure trove of treats that they eventually haul little bits back to their labarynthian home. each time they make the trip they bring more ants, each time doubling their number. my kids very painlessly learned their first multiplication lesson - doubling the number each time. a very cleverly conceived, thoroughly enjoyable book.
Praising the "512 Ants on Sullivan Street"........2002-02-02
This charming, beautifully written and illustrated story helps young children understand the concept of "doubling" numbers. Each time the ants revisit the picnic, they bring more ant friends(in fact, exactly twice as many) to help haul the goodies back to their ant home. The simplicity of the story and each successive illustration with the ever increasing ant army subtly teaches the "doubling" concept. This is a must for any home library.
Engaging rhymes and recurring numerical refrain........1998-12-22
Engaging rhymes and recurring numberical refrain made this book a favorite of my 3 year old. Fun to read and replete with follow-on exercises building on the concept of "doubling". Highly recommended.

It was over too soon........2004-07-31
"Hello Carol" was a warm & funny comic strip. This out-of-print collection is, sadly, the last remnant of it. Get it if you can.

Book Description
This book is designed to help MIS and information center managers and their staffs to efficiently and cost effectively meet the needs of end-users in their organizations. Focusing on managerial aspects of information centers, Robert J. Thierauf explores the ways in which new information technology--spreadsheets, query languages, report writers, word processing, etc.--can be placed in the hands of end-users without the interdepartmental conflict and loss of systems control often associated with such transitions.
