Sailing To Calencia : And Other Poems Of Kindness, Understanding, And Love

Dr. Phillip Tietbohl wrote a collection of rhyming work that works on several levels. The eight poems in the Calencia (ka-LEN'-see-ah) mini-series will entertain youngsters as tales of exploration and discovery with examples of a wholesome way of relating and getting along. Calencia represents hope, an example of a place where equality and other ideals are valued and actualized. These poems may spark discussions about what's important or what matters, useful in many settings and for all ages and serve as a vehicle for children, students, and families to talk about the importance of treating all people and creatures with dignity and respect.The other tales cover a range of themes and topics from the everyday questions that children pose about the world and their connection to it in Wherever You Are, to a store that sells a range of goods along with a priceless commodity, time, in Down at Lubbock's. I Dance details a host of things that you can dance for (and wish/work for) to make the world a better place and is a tale of perseverance when adversity strikes. Peter's Goodnight Story and Golden Wing are two adventure-ballads, one a story of seeking buried treasure at sea and the other a songbird's journey from hatchling to young adult; both are tales of a father's love and enduring wish for all his children that will resonate on various levels. Go Tell The King describes the magic and wonder of autumn leaves whirling and twirling their way to the ground, an experience worthy of royal recognition.Good poetry builds a lasting foundation of love, purpose, and meaning, helping connect us to our common roots when we were soothed by the beat of mother's heart. These tales of adventure will stimulate children's imagination and serve as stepping stones along the way for new family memories of togetherness and compassion. For reading aloud, all ages; independent reader, ages 6 and up with some challenging words to help vocabularies grow.
