María J Guarda: Snapshots from Summer, Gebunden

Klappentext

Who needs a camera? Or a phone? On a family vacation at Grandma's old cabin, Mom shares a little trick for taking mental pictures of emotionally resonant moments---creating snippets of memory that will stay in the mind's eye forever.

Have you ever taken a memorable trip, or experienced something life-changing or exciting, and wished you could store it in a mental "photo album" to revisit again? When Oscar and Patty discover an old picture of Mom and Aunt Fran blackberry picking, Mom tells them that seeing the image brings back all the cherished things she used to do on her summer vacations as a child. But even holding a sun-warmed blackberry in her hand can do the same, she says, and the trick may be as simple as stopping to raise an imaginary camera and saying, click, click. With brightly colored illustrations depicting the small moments that make up big memories, Maria J. Guarda invites young readers to savor and hold on to the precious details of their lives. This is a picture book that is certain to spark imagination and curiosity---whether it's hands-on activities or explorations of a family tree.
