Zander the goose is trying something new this winter. He is not
going to go south. Zander is going to stay! Every year as winter
approaches, geese return south to avoid the cold and snow. Not
Zander, though. Zander declares he wants to stay this year, but
first he’ll have to learn how to survive the harsh winter
climate. Should he do as Bear suggests and put on a thick layer of
fat? Or should he snuggle up with friends like bat does? None of
his furred friends seem to have the right answer for Zander, but
he’s determined to make the best of a freezing situation. He just
needs to find a northern animal whose winter adaptation works for
him. Luckily, one such animal arrives just in the nick of time,
walking on two snugly booted feet. In Zander Stays, celebrated
illustrator Scot Ritchie brings humor and charm to Zander’s
adventure, from awe-filled autumn walks along the shore to cozy
winter hijinks with his new human friend. Award-winning author
Maureen Fergus imbues Zander Stays with humour that is
simultaneously silly and clever. An author’s note further
explores how Zander’s animal friends adapt to their winter
environment.
Our favorite odd-couple friends explore the wilds of their house
after dark in book two of the Buddy and Earl series. Buddy is just
settling in for the night when Earl announces that he’s going on
a trip. Where will Earl go? Wherever the road leads him, of course!
Before Buddy knows it, he and Earl are off on another grand
adventure. While exploring the wilds of the kitchen, they see
wondrous sights, make delicious discoveries and even encounter a
couple of unusual monsters. This second book in the best-selling
Buddy and Earl series reunites the dog who likes to play by the
rules and the hedgehog who knows no limits. Correlates to the

“The bond between Buddy and Earl is as strong as ever in their
fourth book, as is the playful banter and cheerful artwork that
capture their relationship so well.” Publishers Weekly, STARRED
REVIEW Buddy and Earl know that with the right education they can
become anything — even a dentist or a hot-dog vendor! So they
eagerly gather their silly, smelly supplies and head to school.
Soon after they arrive, their teacher, Miss Meredith, is called
away and Professor Earl takes charge of the classroom. Buddy works
hard at lessons like Sniffing Things, Tail Chasing and Scratching
Itches. And when Professor Earl announces that one very special
student is going to win a major award? Buddy cannot imagine who
that lucky student might be… In this fourth book in the
critically acclaimed Buddy and Earl series, the dog who likes to
play by the rules and the hedgehog who knows no limits learn just
how much fun school can be. Correlates to the Common Core State
