5-0 out of 5 stars Ollie the Otter is the best book I've ever read- Brianna Rose Salkow
Dear Grandpa,
Ollie the Otteris about an otter who lived in the ocean before he got captured by a fisherman named Red Beard. Red Beard gave the otter to Kris,she works at an aquarium with otters,a sea turtle, and one bird named Bingo. The otters names are Sadie, Ollie, Fuzzy, and Browner and they also have one walrus named Fnadago. One day the animals set off to the deep dark sea along the way they met a swordfish, two jellyfish, and one great white shark named Tooth. Will the animals survive against the shark, the jellyfish and the swordfish? I don't know you'll have to find out for yourself.I certainly think that Ollie the Otter is the best book I've ever read.

Love,
Brianna
Brianna is my Granddaughter age 9

5-0 out of 5 stars Great story that teaches kids and adults about enjoying life
I read this book on advice from a friend.Then I read it to my 7 year old son.He loved the book and Ollie.We talked about Ollie and his love of life and what that meant for my son and I personally. It was a great couple of hours. Thank you Mr. Williamson.

5-0 out of 5 stars Ollie the Otter is fun!
My 6 year-old son really enjoyed this book and now says it is his favorite!I enjoyed reading it to him.Ollie is a teenage otter with attitude.He doesn't always listen and this gets him into an adventure with his other animal friends. The book may be for ages 8 and up, the it reaches a broader age range.

5-0 out of 5 stars Ollie the Otter
Ollie is a wonderfully uplifting and positive character that I found to be great for kids. His adventures are truly original and the friends he makes along the way are very memorable. This book is exciting, funny, informative and fast moving. Dive in and hang on for a good long swim.

5-0 out of 5 stars Warm blooded applause for Ollie the Otter
I thoroughly enjoyed this book!My primary goal in reading Ollie the Otter was to review and approve its content for my young son.I soon found myself in tears of laughter in several very colorful scenes.The animals in the story have rambunctious and vivid personalities which stand in stark contrast to the animal stories that I read as a child 30 years ago.I had a series of pink books (don't recall the author) that contained individual adventures (volumes) of a bear, squirrel, muskrat, and field mouse, but none compare to Ollie!I have taken the liberty of sending copies to my friends for their children to enjoy. ...

Product Description
The story of Bodach, Palethroat and Pinknose unfolded to Bridget and Don MacCaskill over a period of 12 patient years. Slowly, the wild otters became accustomed to the scent of the humans around their remote Highland sea loch, and the couple were able to observe the habits and behaviour of these beautiful creatures. Cubs are born and grow up with their parents, and the otters regularly encounter other animals, sometimes with amusing results. Whatever the event, Bridget and Don are there with pen and camera, ready to record the details. "On the Swirl of the Tide" is a vivid and intimate portrait of the lives of otters in the wild, part of which was shared with the cameras for Central Television's "Nature Watch" series. The beautiful colour photographs from Don MacCaskill reveal details never before shown, and Bridget's sympathetic writing of the lifestyle and behaviour of these wild creatures is an enchanting account of otter life. ...

5-0 out of 5 stars Excellent Book
For anyone who appreciates these curious, gentle and interactive creatures, this book is a joy to read.There is conspicuously little written about otters, mainly due to their reclusive nature.As mankind encroaches upon their habitats more and more, it is essential that we seek greater insight into their lives.The McCaskills have created one of the only books about otters that is non-technical, depicting the otters' lives with realism, compassion, and the respect and consideration that they are not often given.It reads like a novel, and is based upon many years of first-hand observation. ...

4-0 out of 5 stars This is otter-ly fun!
We bought this soon after my son and I saw the otters playing at the zoo, and became completely enamoured with these creatures.His stuffed otter, which he named Ottery, was his best companion for years.This book provided a great introduction to some of their habits, and, even better, thoughtfully portrayed the ever present theme of young ones wanting to be BIG.My younger daughter recently discovered this among our library, and it is now a favorite with her as well.Now, we just need another trip to the zoo to watch them play. ...

5-0 out of 5 stars GRANDMA
A TRULY GREAT OTTER STORY WITH MANY FACTS. MY GRANDSON LOVE SIT AND SO DO I. THANK YOU

5-0 out of 5 stars Buy it for the illustrations
Lisa Bonforte's illustrations of Sea Otter Pup and his mother are truly lovely to behold.The illustrations add a lot to the story showing otters playing, eating sea urchins, resting in beds of sea kelp and diving for food.The story of Sea Otter Pups birth and survival is a great story for kids who will admittedly probably need some assistance by adults in some of the vocabulary...but that's what grownups are for, right?There is a nice little summation of history of the sea otter and a glossary or terms used at the end of the book.It may lead to more learning as most kids won't quite know how to picture an abalone's foot!So, enjoy the pictures and read with the young people in your life!

5-0 out of 5 stars I don't have time to write reviews but...
I just had to say, in case anyone is looking for science bookswhich can both entertain and inform their young children, this title is a delight!The illustrations are endearing, but the text is what stands out in the book, for--unlike most children's "science" twaddle out there--it is truly lyrical.Children don't need short, choppy sentences which merely regurgitate bland facts in a shotgun approach to "teaching" or "informing".That kind of writing certainly doesn't make for interesting reading!My young reader was delighted with the tale of young Otter, my 2-year-old equally enthralled.I know a book is a keeper when I am asked to read it again immediately.

This book has both literary and scientific merit.A rare find in my search for homeschool materials that can impart knowledge, love for learning and the enjoyment of reading quality prose, all in one appealing package.Not sure as I type this what age is recommended, but my son is currently about halfway through first grade level reading and will be able to tackle this by himself within a year at most.A child up to age 8 would be delighted by this book.

1-0 out of 5 stars Terrible
This book is laborious, overwritten and poor quality.It is as if the author is trying to demonstrate how many words one can fit into a sentence.For insight into Otters, at a child's reading level, choose a different book.

5-0 out of 5 stars A scientifically accurate, highly enjoyable tale
Otter On His Own: The Story Of A Sea Otter is a children's story by Doe Boyle about a young otter growing up in the natural world. From learning how to eat sea urchins to exploring the underwater cove near where he was born and the world beyond, Otter On His Own is a scientifically accurate, highly enjoyable tale. Simple yet inspiring color illustrations by Robert Lawson add depth to the watery world of the otter pup. ... Read more

Product Description
For more than ten thousand years, Native Americans from Alaska to southern California relied on aquatic animals such as seals, sea lions, and sea otters for food and raw materials. Archaeological research on the interactions between people and these marine mammals has made great advances recently and provides a unique lens for understanding the human and ecological past. Archaeological research is also emerging as a crucial source of information on contemporary environmental issues as we improve our understanding of the ancient abundance, ecology, and natural history of these species. This groundbreaking interdisciplinary volume brings together archaeologists, biologists, and other scientists to consider how archaeology can inform the conservation and management of pinnipeds and other marine mammals along the Pacific Coast. ...

5-0 out of 5 stars Interesting and Educational!
"Quiet Miracles of the Brain" - begins relating the results of a left hemispherectomy for a young boy with seizures.Music, poetry, and math are left-side functions - yet, in Matt's case the knowledge and capability traveled from the left side of his brain to the other.The ability to transfer is highest prior to adolescence.

Differences in embryo cells occur after about 100 cells are present, about three days after fertilization.Many mental illnesses have physical brain aspects.Emotions are also biochemical.

"Israel's Galilee" begins with Israeli police sent in by the hundreds to stop a pro-Syrian celebration.Violence has long been a part of life here - eg. the slaughter of thousands of Christians by Muslims in the Crusades, and up to 6,000 years ago in history.

Eight hundred fifty thousand Arabs live inside Israel as citizens, simmering for 50 years.Four hundred fifty thousand of those are in Galilee, vs. 447,000 Jews.Galilee's Jordan River and the Sea of Galilee supply over one-third of Israel's fresh water.Over 1.3 million christian tourists come to Israel each year.

Israel destroyed 165 Palestinian villages in Galilee when Arab nations attacked it in 1948 after Israel declared its independence.The Golan Heights were taken by Israel from Syria in the Six Day War of 1967; it was settle by 12,000 Jews.

Arabs are precluded from building on much of their property; limits also exist on their education, jobs, and public governments.Arabs and Jews live mostly separate lives.Some Jews promulgate greater Jewish immigration to prevent being outnumbered by Arabs; this then results in greater conflict.The hoped for bridge to peace in Galilee is hard to find.

"Living a Dream" tells of the idyllic scenery and environment of the Puget Sound area.Incredibly, however, despite reporting on pods of orcas just a few feet from shore being followed by numerous admirers on as many as 60 small boats, no orca photos appear in the article. ... Read more

Product Description
Chapters: Sea Otter. Source: Wikipedia. Pages: 113. Not illustrated. Free updates online. Purchase includes a free trial membership in the publisher's book club where you can select from more than a million books without charge. Excerpt: The sea otter (Enhydra lutris) is a marine mammal native to the coasts of the northern and eastern North Pacific Ocean. Adult sea otters typically weigh between 14 and 45 kg (30 to 100 lb), making them the heaviest members of the weasel family, but among the smallest marine mammals. Unlike most marine mammals, the sea otter's primary form of insulation is an exceptionally thick coat of fur, the densest in the animal kingdom. Although it can walk on land, the sea otter lives mostly in the ocean. The sea otter inhabits nearshore environments where it dives to the sea floor to forage. It preys mostly upon marine invertebrates such as sea urchins, various molluscs and crustaceans, and some species of fish. Its foraging and eating habits are noteworthy in several respects. First, its use of rocks to dislodge prey and to open shells makes it one of the few mammal species to use tools. In most of its range, it is a keystone species, controlling sea urchin populations which would otherwise inflict extensive damage to kelp forest ecosystems. Its diet includes prey species that are also valued by humans as food, leading to conflicts between sea otters and fisheries. Sea otters, whose numbers were once estimated at 150,000300,000, were hunted extensively for their fur between 1741 and 1911, and the world population fell to 1,0002,000 individuals in a fraction of their historic range. A subsequent international ban on hunting, conservation efforts, and reintroduction programs into previously populated areas have contributed to numbers rebounding, and the species now occupies about two-thirds of its former range. The recovery of the sea otter is considered an important success in marine conservation, alt...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=567471 ... Read more
