Hi! I love your page here. Thanks for including the book I illustrated called THE SKULL ALPHABET! Nice to see how it is being used.

So cool! I want my house to look like a science museum, too, instead of looking like the floor of somebody’s closet. Are any of those antlers from Superboy’s big hunt? Where DO you get all those skulls?

Nice! I’m with Piseco — I want a special loyal reader discount on some mail order skulls and antlers.

Theresa,

This looks wonderful. Where did you get the skulls from? Are these something you order from somewhere. The nature center looks like a fantastic way to learn. Your kids are extremely lucky.

Theresa, I am so worried that you are just not doing enough to accept the move to Alaska. Try to enjoy some of the native culture and wildlife, already! fabulous stuff…

I love the display, but I’m curious. Where do you get all this fabulous stuff? How long do you keep it out? Where does it go when the kids are done studying it? What is your budget for school supplies? How do you avoid pack rat syndrome?

I would love to copy you, but those are the things I worry about!

Sure Kathy! The Jan Brett book (good eyes!) is “The Wild Christmas Reindeer”, the one with the wolf on the cover is “One Small Square:Arctic Tundra,” also included but not easily seen are “Alaska Science Nuggets”, “Over in the Arctic” (a very sweet picture book), the AK Dept of Fish and Game Wildlife Notebook, and a nice Encyclopedia of N.American Mammals.

Fabulous!! We’re inspired to do something more specific with our collections.
I’m curious about the two books underneath the antler in velvet…the left one looks like a Jan Brett book. When you get a moment, could you share the titles? Thanks!
