 The Patterson Puppies and the Rainy Day - What better diversion for a rainy day? The cup of imagination overflows for a family of spirited pups. It's a rainy day, and the Patterson puppies have run out of things to do. If only it were sunny and warm, they could go to the beach! But then Petra gets an idea. Indoor beach party! Buckets! A blue-carpet ocean! The surfing and undersea diving are a blast, until...mom and dad appear on the shore. Uh-oh! Will a mop-brigade party be as much fun? Rambunctious pups are sure to relate to this cautionary tale—and be eager to dive right in.
 Faster! Faster! Hang on tight for more comic joy! A day at the park, a ride on Daddy's back. Run, Daddy! Faster! Faster! How fast can Daddy go? Faster than a dog? A horse? How about a cheetah? Must his feet even touch the ground? Another humorous riff on a favorite pastime. A laugh-out-loud-funny tale of few words about doting dads and high-energy kids whose imaginations know no bounds.
 Higher! Higher! The sky's no limit in a witty picture book about a child on a swing and the wonders of the imagination. "A wonderfully simple book that's simply wonderful for reading aloud," says a Booklist starred review.
 Higher! Higher! ïMás alto! ïMás alto! This Boston Globe-Horn Book Honor winner is now available in a dual Spanish-English edition.
 Yummy Yucky Illustrated in bright, graphic style, Leslie Patricell's spirited board book illustrates opposites with comically dramatic effect.
