Photography for Children, A young person’s guide to taking pictures.
Photography for Children offers quick tips for taking interesting pictures and provides beautiful examples. It introduces using photos to capture color, emotions, and stories. It shows how turning the camera sideways, looking at the light and shadows, and taking photos from different perspectives will help capture stunning images. Though most of the images in this book were taken with a DSLR camera, the techniques shared can be obtained with a cell phone. Sonja McGiboney has been capturing history with her camera for over ten years. She's recorded weddings, new babies, bike races, birthday parties, graduations, portraits, family gatherings, and more. This book is written to instill an interest in photography in children in elementary school. It is not an in-depth explanation of photography gear or terminology.
Rome Antics
A pigeon carrying an important message takes the reader on a unique tour through Rome. As we follow the path of this somewhat wayward bird, we discover that Rome is a place where past and present live side by side. It is a city that has been recycling itself for two thousand years, but unlike a museum, Rome displays its remarkable history without respect for chronology. A new electric bus travels over cobblestone streets just ten feet above the floor of an ancient stadium. Inscriptions from tombs and temples share wall space with neon. Every time a corner is turned there is a surprise, just as every turn of the page brings a new perspective. This juxtaposition of ancient and modern, as seen with David Macaulay's ingenious vision, gives the reader an imaginative and informative journey through this wondrous city. This handsome hardcover edition of Rome Antics includes a new afterword by David Macaulay detailing the long genesis of the book, which is one of his personal favorites. The afterword is based on Macaulay's installation about Rome Antics at the National Building Museum's ongoing exhibition Building Stories, which explores the role of the built environment in children's book.

How to Be a Color Wizard: Forage and Experiment with Natural Art Making
"One of the most important messages you can tell young people is that their work is legitimate--that it counts. This book and its spirit take that message one step further and say that anything you can think to make your work from also counts." --Jon Klassen, Caldecott Medal winner What colors might await in a leafy forest, a berry-stained back alley, a seaweedy beach, or even the dark corners of an ordinary fridge? With this book as a guide, curious young wizards can make natural confetti, unlock the hidden color power inside a leaf, and craft a paintbrush wand. They'll brew magic potions from beets and acorn caps to produce their own colors, from the darkest black to the palest pink to invisible ink, then share their discoveries with friends, family, and the whole color-hungry human race. With whimsy and infectious enthusiasm, master ink maker Jason Logan explains the science of color while presenting "quests," recipes, and hands-on activities using materials kids can find in their own homes and neighborhoods. Featuring both photographs and the author's own gorgeous homemade-ink illustrations, How to Be a Color Wizard is an ideal blend of art and science--plus a little bit of magic.
