Library Lion


An affectionate storybook tribute to that truly wonderful place: the library.Miss Merriweather, the head librarian, is very particular about rules in the library. No running allowed.

Peter Rabbit


The world of Beatrix Potter can come as a bit of a shock in our kinder, gentler era of child-rearing and children's books. The rabbits here don't spend much time on games like Guess How Much I Love You. Rather, Peter is dubbed “very naughty" from the book's beginning, and, in Potter-land, naughty bunnies get their due (in this case, a dose of camomile tea – but ...

Time of Wonder


Robert McCloskey's first book in color is the third and last of the series chronicling his family's Maine summers.

Blueberries for Sal


Sal is a bit scruffy. Her hair hasn't seen a brush for a few days. Her overall straps keep slipping down. But has a more endearing girl ever toddled across a blueberry field in the pages of a children's book? We think not. Under her father's clearly adoring yet unsparing gaze (McCloskey based this and his other Maine books on his own family), Sal tags ...
