Nine celebrated children's picture book illustrators, including
Rebecca Bender, Wallace Edwards, and Suzanne Del Rizzo, unite to
illustrate an empowering text that celebrates the ways young
children can show kindness. Are you kind? In a series of simple yet
evocative questions, this impactful book asks children how they
will show kindness and consideration for others. Written by the
editors of Pajama Press, and illustrated by celebrated Pajama Press
artists, these stunning pages inspire meaningful discussion and
storytelling about the understated yet powerful ways in which
children might influence the world around them. A World of Kindess
goes beyond mere rhetoric to examine, in a child-friendly way,
everyday social interactions where a kind word or act could have a
transformative affect on others. Many of the original images in
this book have been donated by the artists. The cover art was
created and donated by award-winning author-illustrator Suzanne Del
Rizzo.
Back in two sharp new editions, this oh-so-punny friendship story
is making its mark. Pencil and his boy Jackson are a great pair:
they draw, they sketch, they scribble. But then Jackson gets Tablet
and Pencil finds himself dumped in the dreaded junk drawer; he just
can't compete with Tablet's videos, games, and movies. How will
Pencil ever reclaim Jackson's attention? With the help of some new
pun-loving junk-drawer friends (and a drooling, pencil-chomping
dog), Pencil sketches out a plan to draw Jackson back into their
friendship. A former educator whose first book was shortlisted for
a Crystal Kite award, author Ann Ingalls uses kid-friendly puns and
an upbeat tone in this story that celebrates friendship,
collaboration, and unplugged fun. Buoyed by award-winning artist
Dean Griffith's always-exuberant illustrations, Pencil: A Story
with a Point is a gentle reminder that technology is no match for
imagination.

Augusta's pirate-captain father insists that pirates must be
rotten, sneaky, and brainy. But Augusta prefers fanciness to
foulness. Despite the crew’s opposition, she sets out to prove
that a successful pirate can be fancy, sneaky, and brainy, too. In
Bad Pirate, unlikely buccaneer Augusta Garrick that integrity pays
off, even when it means running against the pack. In Good Pirate,
the sea pup is still under pressure to fit in, this time by
abandoning her love for fancy things. After all, says her father
the captain, a good pirate must be rotten, sneaky, and brainy. But
is there really any reason a pirate can’t be sneaky, brainy, and
fancy? When the rest of the crew is captured by Captain
Fishmonger’s mangy pirate cats, Augusta gets the chance to show
just what a well-dressed, sweet-smelling, clever pup can do. With
swashbuckling energy and satisfying pirate dialogue, Kari-Lynn
Winters has written a sequel worthy of Bad Pirate’s popular and
critical success. Dean Griffiths brings personality to every
crewmember, telling stories within stories through his richly
detailed illustrations. A treasure for any landlubber who knows you
can’t judge a mind by its cover.

Rich language, varied text features, and a dramatic camping
adventure combine in this early reader friendship story Timo the
rabbit has always been able to count on his friends for support
when he's feeling anxious. But what happens when the anxiety is
caused by one of his friends? When Suki invites her friends on a
camping trip, Timo is wary. None of them has ever gone camping
before. But a little research at the Toadstool Corners library
makes him feel better - until the first accident happens. Bogs
trips on the dock, and Suki laughs. Hedgewick capsizes a canoe, and
Suki teases. Now Timo dreads being the next one to make a mistake.
Can he get through the trip without making a fool of himself? And
even if he does, will his friendship with Suki ever be the same?
Award-winning author Victoria Allenby and award-winning illustrator
Dean Griffiths, creators of Timo's Garden and Timo's Party, return
to Toadstool Corners to find out in a new, beautifully illustrated
early chapter book replete with rich, musical language and multiple
text features, including a map.

When Timo signs up for the Great, Green Garden Tour, he feels
pressure to make his garden “great” and neglects his friends to
work in it. When his friends help him avoid a disaster, he realizes
his friendships are more important than pride in his garden At
first, the Great, Green Garden Tour sounds like a lot of fun.
Before long, though, young rabbit Timo starts to find that it’s a
lot of pressure. Can he really call his garden “great?” Maybe
it needs one little change...or a few...or a lot. Anxious to make
his garden measure up, Timo forgets to take time out for anyone
else. Luckily, his friends know just how to remind him of the value
of being there for others: by being there for him when he needs it
most. In musical prose filled with word play and whimsy, Victoria
Allenby invites young readers to come along as Timo sets to work
with a skip and a song, meets trouble with a sniff and a sigh, and
triumphs with a smile that’s as bright as the sun. Dean
Griffiths’ charming illustrations are both classic and fresh,
infusing each animal character with personality and life. Complete
with an illustrated glossary of flowers, this beautifully-designed
early reader might just be worthy of the word “great.”
