More About the Author
P.K. Hallinan began writing children's books 35 years ago when his wife asked him to make a book for their two young sons as a Christmas gift. He did, and the feedback he got from friends and neighbors inspired him to write more books. Since then, P.K. has written and illustrated 89 children's books and has sold more than 8,000,000 copies worldwide.
P.K. was born in Los Angeles in 1944 and spent his youth primarily in Bethesda, Maryland and in the San Fernando Valley. Although P.K. never studied art, his disappointment with the work of the artist assigned to illustrate his first book, motivated him to learn to draw. He has been illustrating his own books ever since.
"If I did any one thing right," says P.K., "I decided very early on to write books that help children and parents alike have better and happier lives. That decision has kept many of my books in-print for more than 25 years, because the values I teach are timeless."
P.K. is also an ordained minister and pastors his own small church, Joy Chapel, in Ashland, Oregon. He lives with his wife, Jeanne, in the mountains above Ashland and also at the beach, in Brookings, Oregon.

REALLY GREAT BOOK!,
By
This review is from: Let's Learn All We Can (Paperback)
"Let's `Learn All We Can!" is a book that I read at the beginning of the year to promote positive reinforcement and motivation. It starts off with "`Learning is fun!' said P.K. to Ben. `It's all about try, try again!'" The story goes on to talk about how you should learn to be the best that you can be. (One thing that I always emphasize in my class is that I only look for your best, not for perfection. I tell them that I am not perfect, but that I always do my very best. This really makes my students look at things differently and not feel as pressured.) This book goes on to talk about what you will do in school: learn how to read and write, learn numbers, learn rules to keep you safe, meet new friends, work on computers, do homework to keep you smart, go to bed early... (It really is a great book to have because young children remember almost everything that is said to them, and this book's message is one to be remembered!) After reading this story, we have a class discussion to recall and retell. I then ask them if there is anything else that could be added to this book to help children learn all that they can. They are to take this thought back to their desks and write it down (with or without a supporting illustration) on a piece of paper. When they are all finished, I collect their writings and create a bulletin board outside our classroom entitled "Let's Learn All We Can!".
