4,600 | 0 | Long ago, a little girl named Laura Ingalls lived in a little house in the Big Woods of Wisconsin with her Pa, her Ma, her sisters, Mary and Carrie, and their good old bulldog, Jack. Winter was just around the corner, and Laura worked hard to help make the little house ready for the cold days ahead. Soon there was frost on the windows and snow on the ground, but Laura and her folks were warm and cozy in their snug little house in the Big Woods.Laura Ingalls Wilder's Little House books have been cherished by generations of readers. Now for the first time, the youngest readers can share her adventures in these very special picture books adapted from Laura Ingalls Wilder's beloved storybooks. Renée Graef's warm paintings, inspired by Garth Williams' classic Little House illustrations, bring Laura and her family lovingly to life.Laura Ingalls Wilder (1867–1957) was born in a log cabin in the Wisconsin woods. With her family, she pioneered throughout America’s heartland during the 1870s and 1880s, finally settling in Dakota Territory. She married Almanzo Wilder in 1885; their only daughter, Rose, was born the following year. The Wilders moved to Rocky Ridge Farm at Mansfield, Missouri, in 1894, where they established a permanent home. After years of farming, Laura wrote the first of her beloved Little House books in 1932. The nine Little House books are international classics. Her writings live on into the twenty-first century as America’s quintessential pioneer story.; Title: Christmas in the Big Woods (Little House Picture Book) | [

4,628 | 7 | PreSchool-Grade 3. A carefully translated version of the perennially popular 1964 Caldecott Medal winner. The playful and whimsical style of the original text is maintained from start to finish?from the night mischievous Max dons a wolf's suit to his landing in the place where the wild things roam, from his enthronement as King of these temperamental and pudgy beasts to his renunciation as leader for a steaming bowl of home cooking. Still an engaging fantasy after more than three decades, this extraordinary picture book strikes at the very essence of childhood urges for unlimited freedom without losing the security of home. A timeless beauty of a classic with the most imaginative of monster engravings. Perfect for reading aloud in this finely accomplished Spanish version.?Selene S. Vasquez, New York Public LibraryCopyright 1997 Reed Business Information, Inc.Las reproducciones mas claras del arte original son vibrantes y luminosas. ( H.)Un clasico para todos los tiempos que sigue ganando los corazones de los ninos. El sencillo y ritmico texto y las expresivas ilustraciones son tan atractivos hoy como lo eran cuando yo era nino. (10 Must-Have Books for 2-Year-Olds Brightly.com)Este es uno de esos libros realmente escasos que pueden disfrutar por igual los ninos y los adultos. Si no estas de acuerdo, entonces has pasado demasiado tiempo desde que estuviste en uno de esos salvajes alborotos. Max se pone su traje de lobo para hacer alguna maldad y consigue que lo manden a la cama sin cenar. Por fortuna, crece un bosque en su cuarto, permitiendo que sus locos desmanes continuen sin impedimentos. Las ilustraciones a color de Sendak (tal vez las mejores de las hechas por el) son hermosas y cada vez que se vuelve una pand aacute;gina se descubre una nueva maravilla. Las cosas salvajes, con unos detalles que no encajan y unos ojos gigantes, se las arreglan de alguna manera para tener un aspecto terrible sin nunca causar miedo en realidad; en ocasiones son abiertamente divertidas. Las frases insertadas de manera desafiante por Sendak, una de sus seand ntilde;ales caracterand iacute;sticas, le dan al cuento el toque perfecto de la corriente de consciencia que flota entre la tierra de los sueand ntilde;os y la imaginaciand oacute;n de un niand ntilde;o. Este cland aacute;sico de Sendak es mand aacute;s divertido de lo que habrand iacute;as estado jamand aacute;s con un traje de lobo, y se las arregla para reafirmar la idea de que no hay un lugar como el hogar.

4,641 | 0 | Nathaniel Benchley was the author of several different types of books, as well as plays, movies and magazine articles.He attended Phillips Exeter Academy and Harvard College, majoring in English. Shortly after graduation, he married Marjorie Bradford, and they settled down in New York City, where he worked for several newspapers and magazines. In 1941, before the attack on Pearl Harbor, he joined the U. S. Navy and was later trained to command small PT attack boats. He served in the Navy in the North and South Atlantic theaters and was on his way to the Pacific campaign when the war ended in 1945. He returned to New York and joined his wife and five year-old son, Peter. The next year, they had another son, Nathaniel Robert.Nathaniel Benchley worked as a freelance writer and painter- for the next 36 years. He wrote novels, plays, short stories, reviews, movie scripts and a very popular biography of the actor Humphrey Bogart. Much of his material was drawn from his life in New York and Nantucket, MA, where the family had a summer home. He found the small town life in Nantucket was rich in characters and material for adventures. He wrote a book titled The Off-Islanders, which was later made into a successful movie called "The Russians Are Coming! The Russians Are Coming!" It was the story of a Russian submarine run aground on a small New England island. Several of his other books were also made into movies.His sideline as a painter of landscapes led to his participation in many gallery showings.Mr. Benchley used his fascination with history to create a series of books for beginning and teen readers. His particular interest was in taking a moment in history and examining it through the eyes of a young boy. He told stories about the Vikings coming to what would later be called "America;" Native American Indians dealing with the new settlers in their land ("Small Wolf"); young boys in Colonial America ("Sam the Minuteman" and "George the Drummer Boy") and the movement west; and a young boy who joins the Navy during World War II.He also wrote a series of books for very beginning readers, many of which were about animals and their special bonds with humans ("Red Fox and His Canoe," "Oscar Otter").He was always proudest of the letters he got from young readers who had identified with one of his characters and wanted to ask questions raised by their reading. He personally answered every letter he got from his readers.In 1974, his son, Peter, published his first novel, Jaws, based on his experiences fishing off Nantucket in his youth (and a healthy imagination).For the last many years of his life, Nathaniel Benchley lived in Nantucket with his wife.Nathaniel Benchley lived by the motto: "A craftsman is one who does what he is given to do better than others feel is necessary."He died in Boston, MA, in 1981.; Title: Red Fox and His Canoe (I Can Read Level 1) | [

His new stepmothr and her three daughters feed him crusts of bread and banish him to work in the fields. So Becan runs away.With the help of his only friend, a magical bull, he defeats a giant, slays a dragon, and rescues a princess. But before she can thank him, Becan disappears, leaving behind him one of his enormous boots. The princess scours the kingdom for the owner of the giant boot. Will Becan's feet give him away? And what will his fate be if they do?Folklorist Shirley Climo retells an age-old Irish tale that is an unusual twist on the popular Cinderella story. Just like his female counterpart, Becan has a mean stepmother and stepsisters. Unlike Cinderella, Becan has large feet and a magical bull for a fairy godmother. He defeats a sword-swinging giant, slays a fire-breathing dragon, and rescues a princess. But before the princess can thank him, he runs off, leaving her with only an enormous boot to aid her in the search for her rescuer. And, as in all Cinderella stories, true love prevails.; Title: The Irish Cinderlad (Trophy Picture Books (Paperback)) | [

4,647 | 0 | Grade 3-5?Lawrie has successfully translated Lewis's introductory volume of the "Chronicles of Narnia" (HarperCollins) into a kind of elegant, Edwardian comic book. The 17 chapters of the original have been reduced to 7. Remarkably, this is a true abridgement of Lewis's writing, with his words, particularly the dialogue, faithfully preserved. Only the name of the great wolf who serves the wicked queen has been changed. Neatly framed speech balloons vie for space with hand-printed sections of descriptive paragraphs. The large, parchment-colored pages burst exuberantly with colorful drawings of the four children and the animals they meet beyond the wardrobe. Each one is framed with decorative columns, vines, borders, or flowering plants, appropriate to the adventures they enclose. Something is lost, of course, in the use of pictures on a page rather than mental pictures produced by reading the novel. But children who might never be drawn to the full-length book will certainly be attracted to this charming, action-filled version, and, as often happens, readers of the abridged story may well turn to the original to recapture their delight.?Shirley Wilton, Ocean County College, Toms River, NJCopyright 1995 Reed Business Information, Inc.Clive Staples Lewis (1898-1963) was one of the intellectual giants of the twentieth century and arguably one of the most influential writers of his day.

He wrote more than thirty books, allowing him to reach a vast audience, and his works continue to attract thousands of new readers every year. His most distinguished and popular accomplishments include Out of the Silent Planet, The Great Divorce, The Screwtape Letters, and the universally acknowledged classics The Chronicles of Narnia. To date, the Narnia books have sold over 100 million copies and have been transformed into three major motion pictures.Clive Staples Lewis (1898-1963) fue uno de los intelectuales ms importantes del siglo veinte y podra decirse que fue el escritor cristiano ms influyente de su tiempo.

Originally published as a picture book, A Treasury of Mermaids (HarperCollins, 1997), with Jean and Mou-sien Tsengs vibrant full-page paintings, this paperback edition has new artwork and a chapter-book format. The soft pastels from the earlier version have been replaced with framed pen-and-ink drawings. Where the first book featured artwork as an introduction to a tale, here it is integrated midway through the story. While these techniques may help bridge the transition from picture to chapter books, readers lose the fluidity and grace that underlies the tales. While the newer version may satisfy some chapter-book readers, it does not replace the original publication.Tina Hudak, Takoma Park Maryland Library Copyright 1999 Reed Business Information, Inc.Shirley Climo's love of folklore began in her childhood and has provided the background for many of her children's books, such as The Korean Cinderella, Magic & Mischief: Tales from Cornwall, A Treasury of Princesses: Princess Tales from Around the World, A Treasury of Mermaids: Mermaid Tales from Around the World, and Someone Saw a Spider: Spider Facts and Folktales, an NCTE Teacher's Choice and Library of Congress Best Children's Book that was originally inspired by her research for Cobweb Christmas.

4,697 | 0 | Nathaniel Benchley was the author of several different types of books, as well as plays, movies and magazine articles.He attended Phillips Exeter Academy and Harvard College, majoring in English. Shortly after graduation, he married Marjorie Bradford, and they settled down in New York City, where he worked for several newspapers and magazines. In 1941, before the attack on Pearl Harbor, he joined the U. S. Navy and was later trained to command small PT attack boats. He served in the Navy in the North and South Atlantic theaters and was on his way to the Pacific campaign when the war ended in 1945. He returned to New York and joined his wife and five year-old son, Peter. The next year, they had another son, Nathaniel Robert.Nathaniel Benchley worked as a freelance writer and painter- for the next 36 years. He wrote novels, plays, short stories, reviews, movie scripts and a very popular biography of the actor Humphrey Bogart. Much of his material was drawn from his life in New York and Nantucket, MA, where the family had a summer home. He found the small town life in Nantucket was rich in characters and material for adventures. He wrote a book titled The Off-Islanders, which was later made into a successful movie called "The Russians Are Coming! The Russians Are Coming!" It was the story of a Russian submarine run aground on a small New England island. Several of his other books were also made into movies.His sideline as a painter of landscapes led to his participation in many gallery showings.Mr. Benchley used his fascination with history to create a series of books for beginning and teen readers. His particular interest was in taking a moment in history and examining it through the eyes of a young boy. He told stories about the Vikings coming to what would later be called "America;" Native American Indians dealing with the new settlers in their land ("Small Wolf"); young boys in Colonial America ("Sam the Minuteman" and "George the Drummer Boy") and the movement west; and a young boy who joins the Navy during World War II.He also wrote a series of books for very beginning readers, many of which were about animals and their special bonds with humans ("Red Fox and His Canoe," "Oscar Otter").He was always proudest of the letters he got from young readers who had identified with one of his characters and wanted to ask questions raised by their reading. He personally answered every letter he got from his readers.In 1974, his son, Peter, published his first novel, Jaws, based on his experiences fishing off Nantucket in his youth (and a healthy imagination).For the last many years of his life, Nathaniel Benchley lived in Nantucket with his wife.Nathaniel Benchley lived by the motto: "A craftsman is one who does what he is given to do better than others feel is necessary."He died in Boston, MA, in 1981.; Title: Small Wolf (I Can Read Level 3) | [
