The Salamander Room (Hardcover)

from Leshauck

Great book that shows compassion and the imagination of little kids.

I can't count the number of times I read this aloud to my usually story-phobic kid. He preferred field guides to narratives, but would always sit still for this lovely, quiet story of a boy who loved salamanders so much he would remodel his room for their comfort. I love this book with all my heart.

Excellent! A story that shows how we can teach by asking questions (wondering) with children to help them draw their own conclusions.

from smbmom

One of my son's favorite books, this is a beautifully illustrated, imaginative story about a boy who wishes to turn his bedroom into a forest habitat so that he can bring home the salamander that he finds in the forest.

A boy finds a salamander in the forest, brings him home, and changes his room to match the forest.
