In this unheralded civil rights allegory composed in the heat of the early 60’s, two little dogs frolic and dream of adventures beyond their wildest imaginations, from jungles of the Congo with towering ebony elephants to the whitewashed, frigid arctic where the icy white polar bears roam.

Dahlov Ipcar once again pairs her timeless illustrations with fresh original verse that celebrates the unity, wonder and beauty of the living, breathing natural world around us.

Wild

APRIL 2015

The best-selling picture book by Hawaiian born author/ illustrator Emily Hughes is now available in paperback. Wild tells the story of a little girl who has known nothing but nature from birth. Bears taught her to eat, birds to speak, foxes to play; she is unabashedly, irrefutably, irrepressibly wild. That is, until one day she meets a new animal that looks oddly like her…

There was once a little gardener and his garden meant everything to him. He worked hard, very hard, but he was just too little (or at least he felt he was).

Emily Hughes, the celebrated author of Wild, departs from the larger than life Wild-girl of her debut to pursue a littler than life gardener in a gentle story that teaches us just how important it is to persist and try, no matter what the odds!

“This is my rock!” proclaims a young goat. “It’s not yours,” he bleats at Eagle. “Or yours,” he grumbles at Bear. “Not yours!” he shouts at the other goats. But standing atop a mountain all day and night can be lonely, especially when you have no one else to play with...

With simple wit and beautifully detailed illustrations, David Lucas weaves a tale about sharing and friendship.

This Is My Rock

LUKE PEARSON

Roscoe is a hungry raccoon who is fed up with eating rotten junk out of the trash. What he wouldn’t give for a lovely piece of fish or some fresh, juicy fruit – and where better to find food than at the zoo! An excellent idea. Except for the grumpy zookeeper who’s intent on keeping Roscoe OUT. But Roscoe’s determined to eat and, sure enough, he’s come up with a plan to disguise himself as a zoo animal... What could possibly go wrong?
