Book Overview

"Simple toys are best, and when they're done as well as this, simple books as well."--Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books An imaginative little boy explores the many pleasures that can be found in--and made from--his grandmother's button box. NCSS-CBC Notable Children's Trade Book in the Field of Social Studies "Chamberlain's bold linoleum cuts, with gentle color added, portray the buttons in loving detail and give the book an appropriately old-fashioned flavor."--Kirkus Reviews "Besides inspiring some flights of fancy for readers, the book will suggest many uses to parents and librarians for games, history lessons, and puppetry."--Booklist This description may be from another edition of this product.

Excellent picture book to teach writing

I use this book for grades 3-5, reading the story first, then showing them my button collection. Each child chooses a button and writes a story. It is amazing to me how a small button can "spark" a story but it works! And I give this book a lot of credit for creating enthusiasm for doing so.

I use this book for Kindergarten story time and, as always, try to find a way to help them see a relationship between the story and their lives.

The Button Box

If you have a button collection & kids this book is for you!

This simple little book will provide hours of entertainment to any child who has a mom or grandmother with a botton collection. As children, my sister and I would spend countless hours sorting my mothers botton collection. Believe it or not - buttons are fun! This book is the perfect compliment to any botton collection.
