Tove Under the Tree illustrated by JULIE BENBASSAT

The giant ficus tree has stood in front of Tove's house all her life, but now it's been chopped down. Determined, she picks up a branch that escaped the chipper -- and she plants it on top of her head, right in her hair. And when the weight of this decision grows larger and larger, the entire neighborhood comes together to support her and the tree they all love.

Stinky the stuffed skunk and the kids are reading the classic “Goldilocks and the Three Bears”, but Stinky knows what happened after Goldilocks got away! She went on to break into all the homes in the magical forest looking for some food that was “just right.”  Her bad manners soon make her the recipient of a curse that turns her hair moldy and green! Will she be able to make amends or will she be Moldylocks forever?
