Brief reviews and thoughts about children's and young adult books by Minnesota authors (or illustrators), or about Minnesota. If I get the urge, it may also include ideas for using the books in the classroom. The emphasis is on books published since 1995, but don't be surprised if an oldie-but-goodie slips in occasionally.

Perfect Square
Take a nice square of colored paper.
Now do something with it!
"What do you mean?", you ask. Do you need some ideas?
Check out this colorful picture book for the neatest possibilities for what to do with a square.
Maybe....make a fountain, or a garden, or a park. Maybe....a bridge, or a river, or a mountain.
Don't think it's possible?
You have got to read this book by St. Paul graphic designer Michael Hall. It will stretch your imagination.
