Just Beyond the Very, Very Far North

Author:: Dan Bar-El
Description:: The adventures of Duane the polar bear and his arctic friends continue in this charming sequel to the modern-day classic The Very, Very Far North, which Booklist compared to Winnie the Pooh in a starred review.

This delightful sequel to The Very, Very Far North can be read as a standalone read-aloud or after you read the first book.

Past the place where icebergs shiver, you will find the Very, Very Far North, where Duane and his friends are sure to make you feel right at home. You might like to share a delicious Snow Delight with warmhearted Duane. While you’re slurping away, if C.C. suddenly asks you where you’ve come from, it’s not because she’s nosy; she is simply gathering scientific data. If Handsome, the musk ox, pays a visit, a quick hair combing is highly recommended. Should you notice a quiet caribou grazing nearby, well, that’s just Boo’s way of saying hello.

And if a less-than-friendly visitor arrives to sneak, shove, and shake things up, Duane and the others might discover that life isn’t always as peaceful as a mid-late-afternoon nap. Fortunately, they know that change is as much a part of life as picnics and Tuesdays and cozy stories shared among friends.

Jumpstart your writing program with delight! The Dart invites kids to enjoy literature while learning to write.

Our year-long program is delivered in 9 month-long lesson plans, released one month at a time.

Each handbook features a novel and immerses your child in the world of:

stories
literary devices
grammar
punctuation
and book club parties

Discover how easy it is to teach writing using literature!

Our program uses copywork and dictation as the key tools to teach punctuation, spelling, and grammar naturally in context. Don't worry—we'll show you how.

Did you know that copywork and dictation are far more effective to teach writing skills than workbooks? It's true!

Each handbook contains:

Notes to go with a selected read aloud (book not provided)
Four passages taken from the novel for copywork and dictation, one per week
Easy-to-follow instructions to teach writing elements found in the passages
Playful grammar and punctuation activities that kids love
A simple, delightful writing exercise
Nine comprehension questions
Book club party ideas
Copywork passages on separate printable pages
Four-color design that looks gorgeous on tablets or printed at home

The Dart program comes with guidelines to help you implement the practices of copywork and dictation, as well as a planning tool and a writing skills tracker to help you stay attuned to your child's progress.

Join the thousands of families that have made Dart the #1 Brave Writer program for the last two years!

The Dart is delivered to your Brave Writer online account once per month on the 15th (starting in July). Each handbook is four-color, about 40-50 pages, is a non-consumable PDF, and can be used with multiple children in your own family (no need to purchase additional copies).
