From Caldecott-winning illustrator David Small and bestselling
author Bonny Becker, an unforgettable Christmas story that will
leave the whole family giggling. When Alice Jayne finds a crocodile
under the tree on Christmas Eve, her family goes into an uproar!
The Christmas Crocodile doesn't mean to be bad, not really, but
soon he is eating up Christmas-from the dinner roast to the left
stove-top burner...even the Christmas tree! Everyone has an opinion
about what to do with him. Uncle Theodore suggests they send him to
Africa, Father recommends the zoo, and Aunt Figgy mentions an
orphanage. But Alice Jayne thinks the Christmas Crocodile deserves
a real family. Can she find him a new home? And will she and the
family survive till Christmas morning, with that naughty crocodile
gobbling up everything in sight?

Cheery persistence wears down a curmudgeonly bear in a wry comedy
of manners that ends in a most unlikely friendship.
Bear is quite sure he doesn't like visitors. He even has a sign. So
when a mouse taps on his door one day, Bear tells him to leave. But
when Bear goes to the cupboard to get a bowl, there is the mouse --
small and gray and bright-eyed. In this slapstick tale that begs to
be read aloud, all Bear wants is to eat his breakfast in peace, but
the mouse -- who keeps popping up in the most unexpected places --
just won't go away

"Ms. Plum is the magical teacher every schoolkid wishes for!"
Everybody wants to be in Ms. Plum's class. It's not just that
she teaches the usual things in unusual ways. There's something
more, something about Ms. Plum herself--and her mysterious supply
closet. Whenever she asks her students to get her an eraser or a
pencil or some paper clips, they come back with something . . .
unusual. Who'd have thought a pinky-sized alligator, a big-mouth
parrot, or a tiny wolf could teach kids a thing or two about
life?
Each year, Ms. Plum is certain she's had her best class ever. And
it looks like this year . . . she's right!
Relatable behavioral and personality issues are poked gently with
empathy and humor in this fun, warmhearted chapter book.
"From the Hardcover edition."
