Prepare for a different kind of bedtime book--a zany, imaginative adventure to send your little froggies off to dreamland. Not since David Wiesner's Tuesday have frogs had so much fun! Why go to bed when you can play the accordion, dance underwater ballet, and hold burping contests with strange alien lifeforms? For every kid who ever came up with an outlandish excuse for why it can't be bedtime yet, these froggies' antics will delight and entertain. Acclaimed illustrator Adam Gustavson's raucous authorial debut shows parents there's more than one way to do bedtime.

Experts agree that it's essential for children to spend time exploring and enjoying the outdoors; when they come back in, librarians and teachers can supplement their adventures with nature storytimes. In this comprehensive book full of storytime plans, veteran children's librarian Heather McNeil recommends storytime books that encourage respect for nature and an understanding of the fragility of ecosystems. Each chapter includes crafts, games, songs, and rhymes that focus on learning about and appreciating nature. Some crafts use items from the outdoors; others represent nature's beauty or mystery. Storytime plans include all the components of a successful storytime: books, songs, movement, and creative participation. Librarians and early elementary teachers will enjoy using this book to support literacy and social emotional goals while helping children develop an appreciation of the natural world.
Cognitive Neuroscience of Language
Language is one of our most precious and uniquely human capacities, so it is not surprising that research on its neural substrates has been advancing quite rapidly in recent years. Until now, however, there has not been a single introductory textbook that focuses specifically on this topic. Cognitive Neuroscience of Language fills that gap by providing an up-to-date, wide-ranging, and pedagogically practical survey of the most important developments in the field. It guides students through all of the major areas of investigation, beginning with fundamental aspects of brain structure and function, and then proceeding to cover aphasia syndromes, the perception and production of speech, the processing of language in written and signed modalities, the meanings of words, and the formulation and comprehension of complex expressions, including grammatically inflected words, complete sentences, and entire stories. Drawing heavily on prominent theoretical models, the core chapters illustrate how such frameworks are supported, and sometimes challenged, by experiments employing diverse brain mapping techniques. Although much of the content is inherently challenging and intended primarily for graduate or upper-level undergraduate students, it requires no previous knowledge of either neuroscience or linguistics, defining technical terms and explaining important principles from both disciplines along the way.
