Praise for I CANNOT DRAW A HORSE   “Creative an loaded with humor, this story will have kids giggling in seconds and trying their hand at drawing a horse—or at least a gumdrop.� —Booklist (starred review)   “Part Ed Emberley, with a dash of Pigeon, and entirely meta.� —Kirkus Reviews   “Harper’s illustrations make so much of so little, using a very limited palette and simple shapes, inviting readers into an artist’s notebook. With a little imagination and some paper, ‘nothing’ can become quite something. —Horn Book Magazine   “An easy-to-read text with exclamatory speech bubbles and pictorial antics will tickle funny bones in this off-kilter circular story.� —School Library Journal

Award-winning author and illustrator Charise Mericle Harper delivers a fantastically funny adventure about doing the impossible: drawing a horse. The cat wants a horse. The book cannot draw a horse. The book CAN draw a squirrel, a beaver, and a bunny. Fun . . . but the cat still wants a horse. Can the quick-draw book appease the horse-obsessed cat with an impressive collection of horse-y alternatives (all created from the same "nothing shape")? Or will the cat finally get a horse? The cat REALLY wants a horse.

Triple the fun The first three paperbacks in the popular series starring the lovable Grace Stewart and her third grade friends, together for the first time in a colorful boxed set. The collection includes: "Just Grace, Still Just Grace, "and "Just Grace Walks the Dog." A great gift for girls just settling into chapter books

The third-grader Grace Stewart gets stuck with the name "Just Grace" when she tries to distinguish herself from the three other Graces in her class. Grace is plenty different, though. She has a "teeny-tiny superpower," for instance--she can tell if someone is unhappy and often tries to fix it. When she concocts an elaborate scheme to help her neighbor Mrs. Luther feel less lonely, however, her good intentions backfire rather dramatically. Headlines such as "What Happened At Home That Was Completely Surprising" and "Spying For A Good Reason Is Not Bad" keep things lively, as do various lists ("Boy Things," "Rooms You Can Jump In"), comic strips, and the author's cartoonish spot art. A funny glimpse into a third-grader's madcap world of dashed hopes, perceived enemies, possible friends, cats, and sandwiches.Don't miss the Just Grace website www.justgracebooks.com with its superpower quiz, podcasts, excerpts, and downloads . . . or the other books in the Just Grace series: "Still Just Grace," "Just Grace Goes Green," "Just Grace Walks the Dog," "Just Grace and the Snack Attack," "Just Grace and the Terrible Tutu," and "Just Grace and the Double Surprise"

Charise knows this, and she isn't afraid to use that knowledge. Whether it's her favourite toy car, affection from the family cat, or time to sit on her mum's lap, Charise gets what she wants. She doesn't mean to hurt her little brother, Daniel, in the process, but if he stands in her way, he's going to get what he deserves. Of course, just because Charise is older than Daniel doesn't mean that she is wiser than him. In fact, if Charise can learn to open her heart before she hurts him in a way that she can't take back, she might discover that her little brother has the greatest power of all.
