Sitting Ducks by Michel Bedard
What does a hungry alligator do when a small, innocent,
defenseless duck comes into his life? Will the duck become fine cuisine
or a friend? Very funny with a few frights!
The Worry Warts by Pamela Duncan Cole; illustrated by
Henry Cole
Wombat, Weasel, and Woodchuck wander one warm Wednesday.
They have a weird, wonderful walk using their wits and wily ways.
A wonderful "weed."
The Granny Man by Judith Byron Schachner
For cat-lovers of all ages. Simon is an old cat
whose family caters to his every need including riding him in a
baby carriage. He feels his old life is useless until his family
brings him a new kitty to raise. Very sweet and funny.
Sam's Surprise by David Pelham
Sister Samantha gets her revenge in this
ingenious sequel to Sam's Sandwich. I'll never eat chocolate again!
How Georgie Radbourn Saved Baseball by David Shannon
Georgie brings back baseball when there was no
spring and no hope. Some folks say he was born to be a hero. A great
read-aloud.
Broadway Chicken by Jean-Luc Fromental; illustrated
by Miles Hyman
What is the price of fame? For Charlie the dancing
chicken, it doesn't come "cheep." But Charlie is no ordinary chicken
and soar from New York to Hollywood he did. A delightful tongue-in-cheek
picture book for kids (as well as the older set).
Hog-Eye by Susan Meddaugh
How does a smart little pig escape from a big,
bad, illiterate wolf? There are no trips to Farmer Brown's orchard
in this storybook, only laughs as the pig outwits the wolf again
and again. Very funny.
