The secret then grows into reeds, the reeds are made into pipes - and what happens next will surprise and amuse young readers. The story of King Mark and his ears is told with lively humor by professional storyteller Eric Maddern, and Paul Hess's delightfully droll artwork adds to the fun.

Jack Grammar, average American senior, has no date to the prom. Or so he thinks. Percy and Natalie, Jack's so-called best friends, posted an ad in the classified section of the online version of the school newspaper. They figured it couldn't hurt-after all, there's not much in this world sadder than Jack's love life. Soon Percy and Natalie have assembled a list of girls eager to go to the prom with Jack, including one mysterious girl known only as FancyPants. He has just seven days to meet and date them before he will ask one special girl to the prom. Newcomer Alex Bradley shares a fresh and funny boy perspective in a genre dominated by girls. With snappy dialogue and hip, smart writing, this is a hilarious take on the trauma and pageantry that is prom.
Celia Barker Lottridge knows that young children respond best to tales told with inviting rhythms, and better still when the stories have reassuring endings and embody simple truths. Here Lottridge has collected and retold ten remarkably fresh folk tales from Malaysia, Russia, Indonesia, Puerto Rico, China, Africa, and India. There's the little girl that proves she is not too little to help with the family garden; the fox who takes advantage of other people's generosity until she becomes too greedy for her own good; the little boy who can't get to sleep until his grandmother brings him yet another bedtime companion; and more. The stories, complemented by serene pen-and-watercolor illustrations, promote cooperation and self-awareness and are a pleasure to read again and again.

The Thank You Book by Carole Stuart, illus. by Arthur Robins, encourages youngsters to mind their p's and q's with cartoonish drawings featuring a chipper boy and girl, and an equally upbeat text. The book offers various examples of when a thank-you is in order (when Dad offers a ride to school; when a teacher solves a problem in art class, etc.), and tells how children from all over the world express their thanks. Carole Stuart and Arthur Robins want to teach children a simple lesson: the importance of saying thank you. Stuart and Robins show children and their parents how easy these words can be to say and when, during a typical day, it might be appropriate. In the company of a brother-and-sister team, readers go from breakfast through bedtime, learning all the thankyous along the way. Robins is the winner of the Nestle Smarties Book Prize, the English equivalent of the Caldecott Medal.
