Shane W. Evans
The annual summer visit to the country home of the Old Ones, the uncles and aunts who raised Daddy, brings joy and good times. The story captures all of the elements of a typical reunion--the abundant good food, the old folks reminiscing, the children playing--but it avoids excessive detail that will bore young story listeners. Johnson has a way of saying so much, with so few words, that children are likely to enjoy this story.

Cherly Nathan
Biologist Harrison has often used whimsical poetry to capture the imaginations of children interested in science. There's no poetry in this Earthworks picture book about caves, but Harrison's simple, fluid language is winning all the same. When Millicent the cow strays from the shade, Farmer Howe wonders what has drawn her away from familiar comforts. He discovers that underground breezes from caves beneath his pasture are keeping his cows cool. Then the science kicks in, as Harrison describes caves formation and the underground ecosystems that thrive in the cool dark. The picture, filled with surprising movement, nicely picture both the "story" and the science. An author's note and a bibliography of further readings are appended. It's science with grace, sure to please and inform.VERY, VERY NICE AND INFORMATIVE!

DAVID GOES TO SCHOOL David Shannon
Scholastic
1999
0590480871 Hardcover
VERY GOOD - inscription inside front cover
Dustjacket in fine shape
David, the out-of-control monster-child from David Shannon's Caldecott Honor Book No, David! is back... and ready to disrupt the class. Shannon remembers the word "no" all too clearly from his childhood, and, as he says in his introduction, "It seems that kids haven't changed much over the years, and neither have school rules, some of which date back even further than the invention of sneakers." In David Goes to School, young David shows up late to class, goes wacko at the blackboard, chews gum in class, yells answers out of turn, pulls pigtails, stares out the window, cuts in line, has a food fight ("I don't care who started it!" says the teacher), lingers at recess, and draws on his desk. Colorful, hilarious, childlike illustrations examine our strangely appealing demon-boy at eye level, which is especially disgusting as David stretches an enormous mass of bubble gum from his pointy-toothed maw. After an intense day of exuberant misbehaving, however, he stays after school and washes all the desks until they sparkle. The day ends with a gold star and a pat on the head... something that any child (or adult) would find satisfying.INSCRIPTION ON FRONT ENDPAGE - SIGNED BY AUTHOR. FUN! FUN! FUNNY!

"This is one of the best children's books I've come across! The subject of skeletons can be scary to a child; but here, it's presented with such delightful pictures and silly text, my 4 year-old niece "forgot" to be afraid. It's a perfect length to hold a child's interest through to the end. You can't help but cheer on Boogie Bones, as he "trips the light fantastic" at the dance. And when his true identity is revealed, it's a child who shows the townspeople there's nothing to fear. Your own children can relate to this, and maybe even conquer some of their own fears. All in all, a great book for kids of any age!"THE DUSTJACKET HAS A NICK AND A 1" TAPED TEAR - BUT THE BOOK IS FINE!

Santa goes for a walk in the woods to get in shape for Christmas deliveries. However, he gets tired and ends up falling asleep under a tree. When the forest animals gather 'round him and he tells them he might be too tired to deliver the presents this year, an alarmed fox asks, "Does that mean there won't be a Christmas anymore?" Santa replies, "No, no no...Christmas hasn't got anything to do with me." And he tells them his favorite story -- about the first Christmas, when Jesus the Son of God was born. He concludes, "Love was the gift God gave to us on the first Christmas, and it still is, you know. And this love is far better than any presents I can ever deliver." Re-energized by his remembering of the story, he and the animals return to his house to prepare for Christmas and deliver the presents.

I'M NOT BOBBY! Jules Feiffer

Hardcover
VERY GOOD - no marks or tears
Minor wear on dustjacket
Bobby!" ("Someone's calling Bobby. I'm not Bobby.") Jules Feiffer (I Lost My Bear, Bark, George!) perfectly captures a short flight of the imagination that just about every child has taken--an adult may be calling your name, may have called it 50 times, but it doesn't matter because you're pretending to be something else. In freewheeling, almost scrawled illustrations, Bobby blots out those parental demands by pretending to be a lion, a dinosaur, a monster, and more. But eventually the lion gets hungry and disguises itself as Bobby to go home for a snack.FUN STORY WITH UNUSUAL ILLUSTRATIONS!

ABBIE AGAINST THE STORM Marcia Vaughan
Beyond Words Publishing 1999 1582700079
Hardcover
VERY GOOD Minor edgewear on dustjacket Bill Farnsworth
n this true story, 14-year-old Abbie Burgess has to tend the lighthouse while her father is away. When the worst storm in 200 years breaks out, Abbie must keep the lights burning. Through her own resourcefulness, she manages to protect both the incoming ships and her own family. Abbie is a magnificently brave teen-age girl who struggles against her own fear and self-doubt as well as struggling with the raging forces of nature. Vaughan paints wonderful word pictures with sound and visual imagery. Her use of words suggest how spoken language may have sounded in the mid-nineteenth century. Bill Farnsworth's gorgeous illustrations are equally dramatic and embody the strong spirit of Abby, the wildness of the sea, and the individuality of each character. This is a wonderful book for young readers. It will introduce them to a different era through the eyes of a woman who lived over a century ago. The epilogue that gives historical facts about the real Abby is an excellent addition to the story and makes it resonate with even more meaning.

Tomás is a son of migrant workers. Every summer he and his family follow the crops north from Texas to Iowa, spending long, arduous days in the fields. At night they gather around to hear Grandfather's wonderful stories. But before long, Tomás knows all the stories by heart. "There are more stories in the library," Papa Grande tells him. The very next day, Tomás meets the library lady and a whole new world opens up for him. Based on the true story of the Mexican-American author and educator Tomás Rivera, a child of migrant workers who went on to become the first minority Chancellor in the University of California system, this inspirational story suggests what libraries--and education--can make possible. Raul Colón's warm, expressive paintings perfectly interweave the harsh realities of Tomás's life, the joyful imaginings he finds in books, and his special relationships with a wise grandfather and a caring librarian. SOMETIMES'S TRUE STORIES ARE THE BEST!

SWEET DREAMS DOUGLAS Regan Dunnick

Hardcover
VERY GOOD DJ has one spot on back side
Sweet Dreams Douglas is a wonderful children's book about a dog-child named Douglas who doesn't want to go to bed and doesn't think he knows how to dream. Perfectly suited for ages 3-7, Sweet Dreams Douglas bridges the tender gap between the fun of wide awake play and the joy of deep asleep dreams. Children who fear bedtime will be especially reassured and empowered by its humourous illustrations in inviting, soft yet vibrant colors, skillfully executed by author/artist Regan Dunnick.
In the story, Douglas goes on a dreamquest adventure, asking a fantastic variety of animal friends what they dream. In an effort to find his own dreaming ability, Douglas tries "on' all their dreams and finds that nothing quite fits him. Finally one of his dream companions tells him his answer - "Just dream, little one." Then he really begins to explore some dreams of his own. When Douglas wakes up, he is proud of his dreaming accomplishment, and coincidentally all the animal characters in his dream are found in toys and pets and pictures in his room around him.THERE IS A SPOT ON THE DJ - HARDLY NOTICEABLE FROM THE FRONT

Twitchy Witch wants to go to a Monster Party where no witches are allowed, so she conjures up Wonderpants the Wizard to transform her into a gruesome troll. Add some final touches at the Ugly Parlor and she's ready to party. However, like all magic spells, there is a caveat. Wonderpants warns: "...hide your reflection, near and far,/For a mirror will show who you really are." The party is fantastic until a goblin spots the real Twitchy in a mirror, and only her own magic spell saves her from becoming lizard pie. Briticisms (e.g, "toad in the hole," "beetles and mash") add to the story's humor. The colorful illustrations, featuring six strategically placed holograms and cutouts, are full of lively asides and fearsome, but not scary, creatures. An enjoyable addition.CHILDREN WILL LOVE THE HOLOGRAMS!
