gentle friendliness." - School Library Journal Welcome to Animal
Square where all the animals live and play together. Kitty, Mouse,
Monkey, Giraffe, Rabbit, and Dog are six very best friends. They
each live in their own little home and do lots of things together.
Animal Square is a place full of friendship, happiness, and caring.
Come join in the fun! Giraffe wants to play on the seesaw. But you
can’t play on a seesaw by yourself. Luckily, he sees Mouse. But
Mouse is too little to play on the seesaw with Giraffe, and so are
Dog and Monkey. Is there really no one with whom Giraffe can play
on the seesaw? A satisfying first story about being cooperation and
teamwork. For toddlers ages 30 months and up, with a focus on the

find things that Grandpa will hold dear, just like his dear girl,

"Sir Tim the Knight has a hard time feeling brave and being honest
when he makes mistakes. After a few fibs and more-than-a-few bites
of his mom's delicious strawberry shortcake, his tummy starts to
feel not so good. He finds relief in telling the truth. A sweet
story for younger kiddos about the importance of telling the truth.
The message is clear and direct. Kids and parents alike will enjoy
the illustrations and the story." - Douglas County Libraries Real
knights are always honest. But when Sir Tim accidentally rips his
cape, he tries to blame his friend Max. And when Mom leaves a
strawberry shortcake on the table, he sneaks a bite. Keeping all
these secrets begins to give Sir Tim a bellyache . . . A sweet and
recognizable book about keeping secrets. For honest knights ages 4
and up. The third book in the Sir Tim series! Tim is an ordinary
boy, and like all ordinary boys, not everything always goes his
way. Tim really wants to do well, but sometimes that's not
possible. His innocence and unbridled energy sometimes get him in
trouble. Except when Tim becomes Sir Tim, because knights can do
anything. With his knight helmet on his head and his knight cape
around his shoulders, suddenly Tim feels much more successful. Sir
Tim doesn't worry about accidentally spilling his milk on the table
anymore. And Sir Tim makes the most magnificent drawings. As Sir
Tim, Tim feels like he can do anything. Knights run, climb, fly,
and sometimes they fall, but they always get up and try again. And
that's what Sir Tim does - especially when he has his dog Dragon by
his side. Guided Reading Level J
"This book makes important points about mitigating anxiety in young
children" - Kirkus Reviews"Absolutely super delightful! It is the
perfect message "mistakes" to learn at a very young age. Each
elementary school class and library should have copies of this
amazing book. Having taught elementary, and first grade especially
for many years, this is exactly how these young children/students
feel. They do think mistakes are bad, but it is very important that
they learn mistakes are really the best tickets to their successful
future. We learn best through our mistakes. I especially love the
manner this book is presented in such a positive, caring and loving
way." - ITEEA Lucy was always cheerful and adventurous, but one day
she started worrying about everything. She didn't want to try new
things because she didn't want to make mistakes. The only place she
was happy was at her dad's restaurant, where she would work with
her best friend, Evan. It is there that she discovers that
something beautiful can come from making a mistake! A captivating
and encouraging story about fear of failure. Based on a true story
for children ages 6 and up. Guided Reading Level L
