In all likelihood, your mother or father read you these poems and remember their parents reading the same. This collection of poetry by the creator of Winnie the Pooh was first published in 1924. With its companion volume Now We Are Six, the little books became two of the biggest bestsellers in publishing history. Children all over the world have heard about changing the guard at Buckingham Palace; James James Morrison Morrison Weather by George Dupree; the three little foxes who kept their handkerchiefs in cardboard boxes; and, of course, Christopher Robin, named for A.A. Milne's son. Adults and older children will enjoy Milne's poems too, as some of his humor is subtly directed at a more sophisticated audience. But younger children are the ones who love the naughty Mary Jane (lovely rice pudding again?) and the bears on the corners of London's streets. Read these poems aloud and pass along (or start) a family tradition. (Ages 5 to 9) --This text refers to the Hardcover edition.

Learning to count is made fun in this crazy tale of a dog, alion and a tiger all showing off how many apples they can balanceon their heads as they skip, walk the tightrope and roller skatetheir way through the book. This title belongs to the "BeginnerBook" series developed by Dr. Seuss, in which the essentialingredients of rhyme, rhythm and repetition are combined with zanyartwork and humour to create a range of books that will encouragechildren to learn to read. Originally published under the pseudonymof Theo. LeSieg, this book is being relaunched with a new coverdesign which reveals, for the first time, the true identity of theauthor - Dr. Seuss himself.

That behatted and bow-tied cat from Dr. Seuss's The Cat in theHat is back, and, not surprisingly, is up to all sorts of mischief.This time, Sally and her brother are stuck shoveling snow: "Thiswas no time for play./ This was no time for fun./ This was no timefor games./ There was work to be done." But--you guessed it--thelaughing Hat Cat has other ideas, as he lets himself in to eat cakein their tub. He leaves behind "a big long pink cat ring," which hethen handily cleans with "MOTHER'S WHITE DRESS!" The dress thenloses its pink stain to the wall, then Dad's shoes, then the rug inthe hall, until finally the Cat must call in some assistance: frominside his hat comes Little Cat A, then Littler Cats B, C, D, E,and so on, nested like dolls in ever tinier hats. With this pack offelines, Sally and her brother may get rid of those stains, butthey'll likely never be rid of that rascally cat. As should beexpected from the good doctor, The Cat in the Hat Comes Backprovides an excellent reader (and alphabet prime

Another silly title from the Beginner Books series (the same place that Dr. Seuss and the Berenstains hang their hats), I Wish That I Had Duck Feet follows one little guy's dreams of borrowing all sorts of useful appendages from the animal world. "I wish that I had duck feet. And I can tell you why. You can splash around in duck feet. You don't have to keep them dry." But each time he imagines something new--those duck feet, a prickly pair of deer horns perfect for playing football, a spraying whale spout to keep his classroom cool--he realizes that it's not always all it's cracked up to be. "BUT... If I had a long, long tail, I know that Big Bill Brown would tie me in a tree! He would! Then how would I get down?" A vacuuming mom and pipe-smoking dad are straight out of '60s suburbia (Duck Feet first came out in 1965), but the playful illustrations and catchy rhymes still make for good fun.

One night Max puts on his wolf suit and makes mischief of one kind and another, so his mother calls him 'Wild Thing' and sends him to bed without his supper. That night a forest begins to grow in Max's room and an ocean rushes by with a boat to take Max to the place where the wild things are. Max tames the wild things and crowns himself as their king, and then the wild rumpus begins. But when Max has sent the monsters to bed, and everything is quiet, he starts to feel lonely and realises it is time to sail home to the place where someone loves him best of all. When Maurice Sendak won the American Library Association's Caldecott Medal for WHERE THE WILD THINGS ARE, he said: 'Max, the hero of my book, discharges his anger against his mother, and returns to the real world sleepy, hungry and at peace with himself...from their earliest years children live on familiar terms with disrupting emotions, fear and anxiety are an intrinsic part of their everyday lives, they continually cope with frustration as best they c

As the assured, silver-tongued narrator weaving amongst the excellent work of approximately 40 British actors, Pullman extends an impossible-to-refuse invitation to listening adventure on this splendid adaptation of the much-anticipated conclusion to the His Dark Materials trilogy. The author picks up the story of Lyra Belaqua where it left off in The Subtle Knife. In the most provocative installment yet, Lyra finds herself at the center of what is to be the final battle between good and evil she is a target for the Church, which sees her as a threat. But she is also happily re-teamed with Will Parry, the young hero who Lyra eventually recognizes is her soul mate/true love. Throughout, Pullman challenges Christianity and God (who is a craggy old man here, very different from the usual biblical depiction), asking readers to examine the ideas of organized religion. Favorite characters such as Iorek the bear and Lyra's parents, Lord Asriel and Mrs. Coulter, return, though the introduction of layers of new creatu
