With her sketchbook labeled "My Inventions "and her father's
toolbox, Mattie could make almost anything - toys, sleds, and
a foot warmer. When she was just twelve years old, Mattie
designed a metal guard to prevent shuttles from shooting off
textile looms and injuring workers. As an adult, Mattie
invented the machine that makes the square-bottom paper
bags we still use today. However, in court, a man claimed the
invention was his, stating that she "could not possibly
understand the mechanical complexities." Marvelous Mattie
proved him wrong, and over the course of her life earned the
title of "the Lady Edison."
With charming pen-and-ink and watercolor illustrations, this
introduction to one of the most prolific female inventors
will
leave readers inspired.
Mirette was always fascinated by the strange and interesting people
who stayed in her mother's boardinghouse. But no one excited her as
much as Bellini, who walks the clothesline with the grace and ease
of a bird. When Mirette discovers that fear has kept him from
performing for years, she knows she must repay him for the kindness
he has shown her -- and show him that sometimes a student can be
the greatest teacher of all.
-- "Young readers will want to pull on their own high-button boots
and join Mirette as she dances between the rooftops". -- Bulletin
of the Center for Children's Books, starred review
-- "A satisfying, high-spirited adventure". -- School Library
Journal, starred review
What do leprechauns do? They bury a pot of gold at the end of the
rainbow, of course. But as Mrs. Bally Bunion's ox, Miss Maude
Murphy's hen, and Old Jamie soon find out, they can't resist having
a little fun along the way. For, besides burying pots of gold,
mischief is what leprechauns do!
From this amazing picture book duo comes a lively fun tale that's
perfect for mischief makers of all ages!

Born in 1857 and raised in oil country, Ida M. Tarbell was one of
the first investigative journalists and probably the most
influential in her time. Her series of articles on the Standard Oil
Trust, a complicated business empire run by John D. Rockefeller,
revealed to readers the underhanded, even illegal practices that
had led to Rockefeller's success. Rejecting the term "muckraker" to
describe her profession, she went on to achieve remarkable
prominence for a woman of her generation as a writer and shaper of
public opinion. This biography offers an engrossing portrait of a
trailblazer in a man's world who left her mark on the American
consciousness. "Notes, bibliography, index."
"Beautiful day!" "Not a cloud in the sky!" "A-picnicking we go!" When Picnic was first published in 1984, readers fell in love with Emily Arnold McCully's lush watercolors and charming story about a little mouse who is reunited with her family. Now the Caldecott artist has added words and painted bigger illustrations in her signature whimsical style to accommodate a larger-sized read-aloud book. But what has not changed is a timeless story about the hurt of being lost, and the joy of being found again.
