Walking the World in Wonder . AUTHOR: Ellen Evert Hopman. Created especially for children ages 5-10, this book covers the medicinal and magical uses of sixty-seven common herbs. Each herb introduces itself and talks about its habitat and many uses. With fun, easy-to-follow activities the herbalist-author teaches the children basic herbal skills and invites them to make a sunflower seed mosaic, catnip mouse and dig Jerusalem artichoke roots, just to name a few projects. Children also learn how to prepare simple herbal remedies that they can use (with adult supervison) to sooth a troubled tummy or scraped knee. Parents and teachers will appreciate how these earth-centered activities are placed within a broader social and environmental context. Sixty-seven full color photographs enable children, parents and teachers to identify these herbs during walks and field trips. Walking the World in Wonder gives children a direct and joyous experience of their connection with the natural world and inspires a lifelong interest in their own health and that of our planet. Colorful Soft Cover, 8" x 10", 152 pages, Resource List.
