Summary: An Elementary Principal's review
Comment: This is a wondrous book of inspiration for elementary aged children. The poetry is right on with a rhythm and rhyme that engages the reader. The text is complemented by the beautiful illustrations in hues of purples, aguas and golds. The child in the story could be anyone's chil as she considers all of life's opportunities. I'm buying multiple copies for the school's media center.

Summary: Wonderful book!
Comment: Dreams To Grow On is a new offering from Illumination Arts that is filled with rhyme and colorful illustrations. It gives us an intriguing glimpse of a young girl as she goes through a typical day of pondering what she will be when she grows up - and does it by showing the awe and wonder in a child's daydream. Since this question is often on the minds of all children, it will give them lots of ideas of how to play-act their future.

"A teacher? Or a doctor? Or a writer? Let me see...
Today I'll practice all the things I just might want to be."

Lots of occupations are listed within the pages of this book, just as there are lots of things that children do during their day that can translate to what they might be when they grow up. Playing with dolls - being a mother. Building with blocks - architect. Making mud pies - baker. Looking at insects, flowers, and birds - scientist. Climbing on monkey bars - circus performer. The list goes on and on, and the illustrations are made even more interesting by showing pictures of the child in the present as well as in the future with each occupation.

"My heart will lead the way, no matter what I choose to do.
Great things are sure to happen as I make my dreams come true."

***** This is a wonderful book - just what I have come to expect from the people at Illumination Arts - and is highly recommended for children (ages four to eight) who dream of the future. *****
