Pie in the Sky Hardcover – Picture Book, April 1, 2004

While I know I bought this book used I thought it would be less distressed than it is especially for the price I paid.Think I need to return it.

We enjoyed the different use of textures and mediums in the illustrations. You even get a delicious pie recipe at the end. We love Lois Ehlert!

I'm a huge fan of all Lois Ehlert books. This is another great book for teaching science and art. It can be used to teach very young readers (mine are 3 years old and 6 months) seasons, nature, habitat and even having a family tradition such as baking pie after picking fresh fruit. Once again another great way to introduce kids to science, nature, creative activities such as baking or making a colorful collage.

My granddaughter loves this book. She checked it out of her local library as often as she could. She wanted to make a cherry pie, living 7 hours away from Grandma is hard. I knew I was going to visit her, so I had Amazon mail the book to her, when I arrived we made a pie and read the book together. I would recommend this book to anybody.

We check this book out from the library year after year, and finally we had to have our own copy. The artwork is incredible, and my children love the story. You can use this book also as an I Spy Book, make the recipe of the pie, and teach the seasons, plants, and about birds. There is so much to do with this one book.

I love reading this book to my students, I just was not pleased with the physical condition of the book.

Lois Ehlert's story collages are classic. I used this book with a bird art project with second graders. They painted papers and them used them for their bird collage. The results were outstanding and one of the most popular projects pf the year. A++++

My six year old grandson has checked this book out of his school library at least five times this year. I decided he needed his own copy to pass on to his children.
