Praise for The Compound Noun Treasure Hunt

In this story of animals on a search for gold, complete with humorous twist ending, each page-turn separates the two parts of a compound noun ("DRAGON.../...FLY"; "SUN.../...FLOWER"). The clever concept adds a tactile element to learning that compound nouns are combinations of two shorter words. Cheerful pastel-hued illustrations add appeal.

Gard lives on a small farm in Colorado with her family and a gaggling group of barnyard friends. You can visit her at www.kimberleegard.com. Sandie Sonke is an illustrator with many published picture books, including the Language Is Fun series.
