All I Want for Christmas

It turns out that a skunk wants a big bottle of French perfume . . . and a spider hopes to find a spinning wheel waiting for her on Christmas morning! Deborah Zemke's cheerful, expressive artwork is always a hit, and it's on full display in this fun Christmas wish list for the animal kingdom.

Bugs By The Numbers Counting Cards

Awesome insects decorate these eye-catching number wall cards. One side features an insect built from a number that reflects its numerical feat (e.g., 50 comprises the dragonfly because it catches and eats about 50 mosquitos each day). When the cards are flipped over, the numbers 1-25 are displayed for more counting games and simple arithmetic skills. It's an engaging and entertaining way to look at and learn about bugs and their many numbers.

Kid to Kid

The winsome art of Liz Murphy is presented in a new format: animal postcards that can be removed from the book and sent to friends, complete with sayings such as "Have a bow-wow birthday!" All the pages are perforated so that after the postcards have been sent, a mini-book remains, complete with art and fact-filled text about each animal.

My First Activity Book: Draw + Color Fun - Faces

Creative, imaginative , and engaging play for first-time artists.

An ideal activity book--with bold and bright art from Tanya Roitman--for children who have just learned to hold a crayon or pencil. First scribbles and drawings are important, precursory steps to reading and writing! Kids can complete and color all kinds of faces: boys, girls, tigers, monkeys, even ladybugs. At first, toddlers might only draw a circle for a face, not adding eyes, nose, or mouth. But in time, they will fill in the different features, from eyelashes to teeth; from curly hair to whiskers.
