In this hilarious prequel to the traditional tale, Goldilocks is a goody-two-shoes invited by Mummy Bear and Daddy Bear to mend the ways of a very naughty Baby Bear. This novelty book features textured elements, pop-ups, and flaps to lift. Full color.
Mouse’s friends take turns putting together the pieces that come in a box as a birthday present; but, only Shrew, who takes the time to read the instructions, is able to build something that really works.
John Burningham gives toddlers a lively demonstration of the building blocks of learning. Full of spirited fun, this “first step” – LETTERS – is just right for very young children who are on the path to figuring out the world around them.
A treat for fans of ghastly gore and egregious endings. “Contains a Dangerous Beast and a Miserable End,” states a warning on the cover. But if you are strong of heart and like your humor a little on the dark side, jump right into the brilliant collaboration of the Edwardian humorist Hilaire Belloc, dead for the past 57 years, and the very much alive Mini Grey. Grey’s sly illustrations, clever type designs, amazing lift-the-flaps, and a roaring lion pop-up, not to mention her zoo map with hilarious Rules and Byelaws, make this edition of the classic cautionary tale a collectible to savor. Decidedly not a lift-the-flap for babies, it will lift the spirits of anyone with a well-developed sense of humor.
Lively full-color illustrations accent a dazzling alphabet book that uses double-page spreads to highlight the upper- and lower-case versions of each letter, in a distinctive concept book first published in 1964.
Teaches children to identify number sets: one monkey, three frogs, four elephants.
Portrays written numerals as physical objects, helping children to associate the sign for a number with the act of counting.
Easy-to-read text and drawings describe a young boy’s relationship with his best friend Arthur.
The chimpanzees of a colorless and boring town defy their grumpy mayor and make Drabsville, now named Happytown, fun again.
In flight from the magic visions that plague him, Merlin falls into the hands of the wodewose–wild folk who, according to legend, live in the company of wolves and devour children. But far from being wild, the wodewose are an enormous family of the unwanted, the abandoned, and the homeless. For once Merlin has found a place where an orphan like himself belongs.
This is the third book in the “Young Merlin Trilogy.”
