Green Eggs and Ham meets Vegetables in Underwear in this
laugh-out-loud tale of one kid's radical generosity as he makes
custom underwear for all his friends. What's a kid to do when given
a day-of-the-week underwear set-wear Monday's undies on Monday,
Sunday's undies on Sunday like a rule-following robot? No sirree
bob! This kid'll cut and craft, snip and sew until every single one
of his friends has their own pair of underwear-whether they want
them or not. . . . One kid's valiant attempts to create a pair of
underpants for each of his buddies, no matter how imaginary, is a
laugh-out-loud testament to the devotion of friendship, welcoming
the creative muse wherever it strikes you, and the power of
underwear to unite even the least likely of allies-especially on
the days you don't want to wear them.

This charming picture book celebrates all our differences while
questioning the idea that there is only one way to be "normal." Pip
is a normal pig who does normal stuff: cooking, painting, and
dreaming of what she'll be when she grows up. But one day a new pig
comes to school and starts pointing out all the ways in which Pip
is different. Suddenly she doesn't like any of the same things she
used to...the things that made her Pip. A wonderful springboard for
conversations with children, at home and in the classroom, about
diversity and difference.
Does a scarecrow have a butt? Yep, you stuff him with a straw one.
And does a crayon have a butt? Nope, but it can surely draw one.
This silly, funny, clever book will be the most quoted text in all
of elementary school. Over the course of a long walk across a city,
one curious kid needs to know: "Does it have a butt?" Everything
from sheep to ghosts to dinosaurs is subjected to this
all-important question, and Dad is a never-ending source of
answers. On a laugh-out-loud father-child ramble, we come to see
that every butt, from a bullfrog's to a zombie's, has its own
distinctive, and distinctively hilarious, quality.

Now that all animals have equal rights, and the Phantastic Noodler
is public property, Beaston is the perfect place for pasta parties.
Creatures flock from far and wide to transform string into
spaghetti and pillows into ravioli. But things take a turn when a
wealthy Okapi-talist sees an investment opportunity. He cuts a deal
with the Mayor, buys the Noodler, and suddenly things change for
the worse. With privatization come monopoly, exploitation,
pollution, and poverty. As for Noodlephant, she's off in Japan and
China, slurping up ramen, soba, and biang biang. What will
Noodlephant's friends face as they struggle to regain their town?
Will Noodlephant ever return? And how will Beaston resolve the age
old question: To whom does the Phantastic Noodler belong? Read on
for a tale of power, politics, and of course ... pasta!
