Click, Clack, Moo (25th Anniversary Edition) illustrated by BETSY LEWIN

Farmer Brown has a problem. His cows like to type. All day long he hears:

Click, clack, moo.
Click, clack, moo.
Click, clack, moo.

But Farmer Brown's problems REALLY begin when his cows start leaving him notes...

Celebrate twenty years of barnyard shenanigans with this special anniversary edition of the story that started it all, Click, Clack, Moo—now with a bonus poster in the inside cover!

I Hear the Snow, I Smell the Sea illustrated by CHRIS RASCHKA

Neveah is blind, but that doesn't mean she can't enjoy each of the four wondrous seasons of the year. She knows it's winter when her boots go scruuunch in the snow, and she knows spring by the smell of hyacinths, the bzzzz of a bee in her ear. Koin Neveah as she uses her senses of touch, taste, hearing, and smell to vividly describe the changing seasons and the unique delights they each have to offer.

The Polar Bear and the Ballerina written and illustrated by ERIC VELASQUEZ

When dancers have a photoshoot at the Central Park Zoo, a young, African American ballerina and a polar bear form a special friendship. When his new friend leaves her scarf behind, the polar bear must venture through Central Park and out into Manhattan to return it before her performance at the Lincoln Center. Will he manage to get in?

Z is for Moose illustrated by PAUL O. ZELINSKY

Zebra thinks the alphabet should be simple. A is for Apple. B is for Ball. Easy! But his friend Moose is too excited to wait his turn, and when M isn’t for Moose (Mouse gets the honor), the rest of the letters better run for cover. It's a laugh-out-loud comedy of errors all about friendship, sharing, and compromise!
