A New York Times best-selling masterpiece featuring a sing-song rhyming text and humorous energetic illustrations about a spirited child and outside-the-box, creative thinking. When the child gets caught painting everything from the ceiling to the floor, Mama says "Ya ain't a-gonna paint no more!" But nothing will keep this artist from painting! Written to the familiar tune "It Ain't Gonna Rain No More," the text bounces alongside vibrant stylized pen-and-ink drawings, while page-turns offer up a fun read-aloud guessing game in which kids will delightfully participate. What will the child paint next? "So I take some red and I paint my . . . HEAD!" Silliness paired with the ruckus read-aloud appeal will have every reader begging for repeat reads.

puts his arguments in writing. He promises that she won't have to
feed it or clean its cage or even see it if she doesn't want to. Of
course Mom imagines life with a six-foot-long iguana eating them
out of house and home. Alex's reassurances: It takes fifteen years
for an iguana to get that big. I'll be married by then and probably
living in my own house. and his mom's replies: How are you going to
get a girl to marry you when you own a giant reptile? will have

Molly Lou Melon's mother taught her to use her big voice for good - to speak up for what's right, for those who can't, and even when it's hard. So she does. When school starts and a bully begins teasing everyone, including a new student, Molly Lou knows just what to do. From standing up for a friend to admitting when you've made a mistake, Molly Lou shows us how speaking up is always the right choice.
"Dear Kids, A long time ago, when you were little, Mom and I took you to where we wanted to build a house. . . . I remember there was one tree, however, that the three of you couldn't stop staring at. . . ." After the family spares him from the builders, Steve the tree
quickly works his way into their lives. He holds their underwear
when the dryer breaks down, he's there when Adam and Lindsay get
their first crushes, and he's the centerpiece at their outdoor
family parties. With a surprising lack of anthropomorphizing, this
is a uniquely poignant celebration of fatherhood, families, love,
and change.
