An irresistible laugh-out-loud picture book about the importance of
asking questions, by bestselling creator Laurie Keller. The helpful
KNOW-IT-ALL in apartment 2C can answer any question. He's such a
wealth of information, and all his neighbors depend on him. But one
day he is asked a question that he just doesn't understand. How can
2C help his neighbor and also protect his smarty-pants reputation
if he doesn't know what the question means? This clever story
reinforces that it's okay-in fact, it's actually a very good
thing-to say "I don't know." Asking questions leads to discovery,
understanding, and insight. In her signature humorous and
imaginative style, Laurie Keller takes the embarrassment out of
admitting that you don't know something and proves how helpful it
can be!
At the first annual "states party," Virginia and Idaho hatch a plan to swap spots so each can see another part of the country. Before the party is over, all the states decide to switch places.
In the beginning, every state is happy in its new location. But soon things start to go wrong. Florida, who switches spots with Minnesota, is freezing in the frosty northern climate, and Minnesota hasn't brought sunscreen and is getting an awful sunburn. Will the states ever unscramble themselves and return to their proper places?
Packed with madcap humor and whimsical illustrations, this quirky story--starring all fifty states--is chock-full of introductory facts and silly antics that will make learning geography as much fun as taking a vacation.

At first glance, Arnie looks like an average doughnut - round,
cakey, with a hole in the middle, iced, and sprinkled. He was made
by one of the best bakeries in town, and admittedly his sprinkles
are candy coloured. Still, a doughnut is just a doughnut, right?
WRONG! Not if Arnie has anything to say about it. And, for a
doughnut, he sure seems to have an awful lot to say. Arnie has
bigger plans in store for himself! Here's the bestselling picture
book that launched the chapter book series: Adventures of Arnie the
Doughnut.
A deliciously imaginative story about friendship—from the author / illustrator of The Scrambled States of America.
Arnie was fascinated as he watched the customers stream into the bakery. One by one, doughnuts were chosen, placed in paper bags, and whisked away with their new owners. Some went by the dozen in giant boxes. “Good-bye!” Arnie yelled to each doughnut. “Have a good trip!” “This is so exciting!” Arnie beamed. “I wonder who will choose ME?”
