I LOVE this new book! It bursts with the most colorful art and invites children to use their imagination to closely explore new and familiar interesting places and objects. This book was read to my kindergarten class at the end of the year and I found that it is not only wonderful for those cozy bubble baths at home, but can also serve as a the perfect spring board for bubble science, new vocabulary, geography, math, and writing. After the book was read to my class, we pretended to be scientists and made a bubble mixture using measuring cups and solutions. We took our bubble mixture and pipe cleaner wands outside, and imagined where the bubbles were going and what else we might see inside the "tiny orbs." The students couldn't wait to write and illustrate the "world" they imagined.
