Books and More for Children and Teens

Up Above and Down Below by Sue Redding is a quirky and fascinating look at the two worlds, the one above the surface of the ground and the one below.  Redding's pop-art illustrations capture both the wonder of the two distinct places as well as adding a broad sense of humor to them.  Ocean scenes are amazing glimpses below the surface while the golf course illustration has gophers working industriously with stolen balls.  Children will enjoy looking closely at the illustrations and laughing aloud at the funny details they discover.  This is not a book for sharing at a storytime, but one to allow children to appreciate on a smaller scale.  Share this with almost any child, and you are guaranteed a good deep laugh.
