Join Emersyn as she explores a busy pond, discovering a sweet little Spotted Salamander! Checking her field guide and continually sketching and jotting her wonderings in her notebook, she learns all about the salamander, including why its species might be in trouble! Having loved all things related to Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math my entire life, it has always been a dream of mine to write a children's picture book. When my granddaughter, Emersyn Blake, was born, and we saw early on that she was curious and always wanted to be outside, I knew I had to write a series about her explorations! I hope you enjoy reading about the little-known creatures Emersyn finds, researches, and loves. I also hope it inspires you to explore, be curious, wonder, and learn new things no matter where you are! After reading the book, check out the Extension Activity Ideas to keep the learning going at collazocove.com
