It's the summer of 1903 in Brooklyn and all fourteen-year-old
Joseph Michtom wants is to experience the thrill, the grandeur, and
the electricity of the new amusement park at Coney Island. But that
doesn't seem likely. Ever since his parents--Russian
immigrants--invented the stuffed Teddy Bear five months ago,
Joseph's life has turned upside down. No longer do the Michtom's
gather family and friends around the kitchen table to talk. No
longer is Joseph at leisure to play stickball with the guys. Now,
Joseph works. And complains. And falls in love. And argues with
Mama and Papa. And falls out of love. And hopes. Joseph hopes he'll
see Coney Island soon. He hopes that everything will turn
right-side up again. He hopes his luck hasn't run out--because you
never know. Through all the warmth, the sadness, the frustration,
and the laughter of one big, colorful family, Newbery Medalist
Karen Hesse builds a stunning story of the lucky, the unlucky, and
those in between, and reminds us that our lives--all our lives--are
fragile, precious, and connected.

If you give a child a box, who can tell what will happen next? It
may become a library or a boat. It could set the scene for a fairy
tale or a wild expedition. The most wonderful thing is its
seemingly endless capacity for magical adventure, a feature
imaginatively captured in cardboardesque art by Chris Sheban and
rhythmically celebrated in this poetic tribute by renowned
children's author Jane Yolen.

of a box to bring an imaginative concept to life.

Age range 3 to 6 Take this rocket ship to the stars! Fantastical
illustrations give a nod to scientific reality while leaving room
for imagination in this innovative board book. As each panel
unfolds, youngsters are sure to delight in the exciting twists of
this journey to outer space. A small die-cut circle in the cover
provides the option for a hanging display of the continuous
artwork.
In his strange new room on his big new bed, Brody tosses and turns, holding his stuffed dragon named Horst. His parents can't help him fall asleep, so he has no choice to go out and search for a better bed. Is it a squirrel's nest? A cloud? A rowboat on a pond? No, the moon is too bright, and the croaking frogs are too loud, so there's nothing for it but to go back home and jump into his big new bed, where a friendly dragon makes a perfect pillow.
