The perfect integration of words and pictures creates a coherent and delightful whole.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen this charming book was first published in 1978, there was a widespread idea that it was too expensive and risky to publish a children's book in Canada. And so Margaret Atwood not only wrote and illustrated the book, she handlettered the type! The book was created in the old-fashioned way, using only two colors that mixed together to produce a surprisingly large range of tones and textures. The delightful result reminds us that technology hasn't necessarily made things better. This facsimile edition renders intact the unique pleasures of the original.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCorrelates to the Common Core State Standards in English Language Arts:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.K.1\u003cbr\u003e\nWith prompting and support, ask and answer questions about key details in a text.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.2.4\u003cbr\u003e\nDescribe how words and phrases (e.g., regular beats, alliteration, rhymes, repeated lines) supply rhythm and meaning in a story, poem, or song.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"display:none;\"\u003eMargaret Atwood Margaret Atwood Margaret Atwood \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Groundwood Books Ltd","offers":[{"title":"EPUB [reflow]","offer_id":54527244206353,"sku":"9781554981984","price":9.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":54527244239121,"sku":"9780888997296","price":18.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Amazon Kindle [reflow]","offer_id":54527244271889,"sku":"9781773065816","price":9.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/9676\/3409\/files\/9781554981984.jpg?v=1788202973","url":"https:\/\/bookcentre.ca\/products\/up-in-the-tree","provider":"The Canadian Children's Book Centre","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
