Young Hewitt Anderson is sweet, smart, polite--and very, very small. This warmly humorous tale is "proof that, when it comes to heart, physical size isn't the whole story" ("Kirkus Reviews").
Descended from a long line of giants, the J. Carver Worthington Andersons take their height very seriously indeed. You see, without exception all of the many J. Carver Worthington Andersons have been giants until now. And poor Hewitt--hidden in the floorboards, trapped in the flour vat, lost in the bedsheets--has his struggles being tiny. Oh, his parents worry: How will their son manage to live in a world of big things? Leave it to Hewitt to prove the power of being small.
Inspired by the tale of "Jack and the Beanstalk," the inimitable Jerdine Nolen tells an original story of bravery and the power of the individual. Kadir Nelson's imaginative and loving illustrations create a world where smallness rules--a world that children will want to return to again and again.

Hide-and-seek, hopscotch, hand tennis, Red Rover and tag – can you remember how much fun you had as a kid?

Today’s children no longer know how to play and as a result the development of their fine and gross motor skills is not up to standard. They often struggle with activities such as colouring, cutting, catching a ball and jumping on one leg. As a result of their poor muscle development, they also struggle with concentration. Various factors negatively influence the development of motor skills. The worst culprit is probably the fact that modern entertainment (such as cell phones, television and electronic games) is passive and lacks creativity.

This book comprises 123 games that can aid your child’s comprehension as well as helping to develop reasoning and numerical skills. It also offers an opportunity to interact with your child and enhance his emotional development. And best of all, these games are great fun for parties, icebreakers or just playing.
