Breve biografia
Lavallee obtained a fine arts degree from Wesleyan University and taught art at Mt. Edgecombe boarding school in Sitka, Alaska for twelve years. She resides in Anchorage, Alaska.
****************

Barbara Lavallee grew up in Iowa and Wisconsin, the daughter of an art teacher and a Protestant minister, and graduated from Illinois Wesleyan University with a degree in art education in 1964. She worked in social services in Germany and Maine, taught art to Native American children in Arizona and Alaska, and owned and operated a restaurant with her husband, Tom, in Sitka, Alaska.

Divorced since 1981, Lavallee raised her sons, Mark and Chip, in Sitka and Anchorage. Today she and her sons manage a family-owned, direct-mail merchandising business, Lavallee and Sons, in Anchorage. [from Painted Ladies and other celebrations (1995)]

I think this book would be perfect for an end of the school year book to het the students excited for summer and maybe any future vacations they may have. This book is definitely meant for lower grade levels such as kindergarten-1st grade.

I would use this book this book with lower grade levels such as kindergarten or first grade as it is very repetitive and the words chosen are very simplistic and would be much too easy for older grade levels to read. With this book, it would be easy to have the students make connections about their favorite vacations or their ideal vacations. I would also have them practice their inferring skills based on what they think would happen next based on the illustrations.
