minding his manners. Little Red
Riding Hood, the Three Little Pigs and
other guests at the party are sure he
will do something rude. After all, he
is the
Big Bad Wolf. With a little
help from a friend and a handy library
book, B.B. Wolf ends up surprising
everyone with just a few bumps and
burps along the way! The clever details
in the bright
illustrations and the fresh take on
familiar
storybook characters makes this book a
fun way to learn about good manners.

The End

Did you ever hear of a fairy tale that
started at the end? That's what this
book does! The story begins, "And they
all lived happily ever after." That's
the end, right? What happens before
that? Well, that's the secret of this
delightful book--it starts at the end
and goes backward to the beginning.
Children and grownups will both enjoy
this wonderful tale of a curly-bearded
knight, a clever princess, a tantrum-
throwing giant, and a big bowl of
lemonade.

Not a Box
Antoinette Portis (2006) , under 40 pages
Illustrated by Antoinette Portis
Audience: Toddlers, Preschool, Primary (k-3rd grade)
Category: Adventure, Fantasy, Humor
(This book has outstanding illustrations)

Bunny has found a box. Only to bunny,
it’s not a box.
It can be anything he chooses it to be.
The box can be a race car, a rocket
ship or even a robot. Just don't call
it a box. Imaginative, funny and
universally true, this work recreates
the sense of wonder a child can
have with only their imagination and a
simple cardboard box.
