It's Christmastime, and Tallulah finally gets what she's been wishing for--a part in a "real "ballet, a professional production of "The Nutcracker." She's only a mouse, but she works as hard as if she had been cast as the Sugar Plum Fairy. On the night of the show, everything is perfect. But then disaster strikes Does Tallulah have what it takes to become a real ballerina? A well-told story, gorgeous illustrations, and a beloved character conspire to make a positively magical Christmas book.
With 6 starred reviews, 8 best of the year lists, and over 20
state award nominations, everyone is raving about "Mirror
Mirror" First, read the poems forward (how old-fashioned ), then reverse the lines and read again to give familiar tales, from Sleeping Beauty to that Charming Prince, a delicious new spin. Witty, irreverent, and warm, this gorgeously illustrated and utterly unique offering holds a mirror up to language and fairy tales, and renews the fun and magic of both.
The amusing differences between dogs and cats are shown through clever rhyming couplets in this lively picture book by a renowned poet From morning to night, a cat and dog who live together show their innate feline and canine natures. The dog barks at the delivery man while the cat barely notices; the dog runs out to play when the children return from school, while the cat prefers to keep napping on the soft couch. Neither gets the better of the other in their rhyming interchanges, and by day's end they realize that, despite being opposites, they are happier when they're together.
Tallulah is back in ballet class and now she wants to go "en pointe"--to dance up on the tips of her toes in pink satin toe shoes, like a real ballerina. But going "en pointe" is not good for growing feet, and her ballet teacher says her feet aren't ready yet. "Oh, yes, they are, " Tallulah thinks. "And so am I." Not only is she ready, she's determined. And nothing stops Tallulah when her mind is made up
On the same day in March... On the same day that it's icy cold in the Artic, it's foggy in Louisiana, sunny in Barbados, and blowing wild winds called willy-willies in Austrailia. In this poetic exploration of longitude and weather, with bright and detailed paintings of seventeen different places, Marilyn Singer and Frane Lessac show us what's happening from the poles to the equator-- all on the same day in March.

A paean to play from an award-winning poet and a "New York Times "best-selling illustrator. The trappings of childhood change from generation to generation, but there are some timeless activities that every kid loves. Marilyn Singer and LeUyen Pham celebrate these universal types of play, from organized games such as hide-and-seek and hopscotch to imaginative play such as making mud soup or turning a stick into a magic wand. Lyrical poems and bold illustrations capture the energy of a group of children in one neighborhood as they amuse themselves over the course of a summer day. At a time when childhood obesity rates are soaring and money is tight for many families, here is a book that invites readers to join in the fun of active play with games that cost nothing.
Forty-three men with forty-three passions, but with one thing in
common: a presidential place in America's history.
Why can't a white kid sit with the black kids in the cafeteria?
Marilyn and Larry Singer have identified the one common thread that
was present in all their successes and failures: them. They were
always there. Like most people, YOU are in the way of your own
success, happiness, and eventual advancement.
