review 1: A kind of quirky and philosophical book for kids and parents about seeing the world differently, with several "explorations" to keep people busy for a summer, and more. Has places in the book for research notes, data collection, setting up a place for a museum (or way to demonstrate your findings). It's not about the usual kinds of collections, such as bugs or leaves, but collecting objects on the way to school, or a sound map, or faces you see in common every day objects. Of course, it's kinda about ways of seeing. Lynda Barry has one of these how-to art books for visual and rotten storytelling, to help readers become artists and writers of their own worlds. This is like that, but takes a kind of kid research angle to it… Cool. We will do this.
review 2: We
... moreshall not cease from exploration.And at the end of all our exploring, will be to arrive where we started.And know the place for the first time. -T.S. EliotThis book only looks like a book to the untrained eye.It's really a portable life museum.A place to display your unique vision of the world.LIFE IS A SCAVENGER HUNTConcenstrating on the power of observing, things that might be ordinary,if seen with an explorer's eye, oridinary can be extraordinary.But the methods of observing is more than seeing, it's sound, smell,touch,taste,movement, artistically,abstractedly, 2D, 3D,aesthetically,culturally, and much more.When you learn the variety of ways to observe, everything will be illuminated.The format of the book is very playful,like a journal.If I had to choose three words to describe this book I'd pick,qUiRky, iMaGiNaTiVe,and wHiMsiCaL. less
