    Little piggies go to the market or at home, eat roast beef or go within this version of the traditional

    toe-counting rhyme

    In this simple story belonging tothe first level of Herbster Readers,Herbie Bear and his friend Charlie

    use 100 rectangular blocks to createa toy house. Readers can search for the

    hidden rectangles throughout thebook's

    Pink was the runt of the pig litter. He was s

    small that the Kerby family didnt think he

    would surviveso they brought him into th

    house where he met Tink, a new dachshun

    mom. When Tink saw Pink, she immediate

    adopted him into her family, and helped nu

    him back to health. Pink thrived in his newfamily: the puppies didnt mind that Pink l

    Down Girl and Sit like chasing

    squirrels and don't like being

    fenced in. When their owners take

    them to a country ranch, however,

    Git Along, their new doggy pal,

    warns them about life on the other

    side of a fence. But Down Girl andSit can't resist discovering the

    dangers of the Wild West for

    themselves.

    During the bus trip to sports camp, Riley

    hears about a giant snapping turtle in the lake

    and other alarming tales. Upon arrival, he

    starts his busy schedule of basketball games,

    water polo matches, and a relay race. Inter-

    spersed among the descriptions of the games

    are incidents involving other camp elementspranks, unappealing food, and strange, unex-

    plained occurrences that may owe something

    to overactive imaginations.

    When a writer spends six weeks in a

    -grade classroom, Lucy begins to und

    stand the power of the written word.

    Colorful Ms. Mirabel introduces the

    students to the idea that writing can c

    their lives and inspires them to find th

    own stories and to write them. Lucy

    oesn't believe her life is interesting en

    to write about, but Ms. Mirabel insist

    everyone has an important tale to tell

    Wolf runs away from a monastery after years

    of mistreatment by his master, Brother

    Thomas. As he's fleeing across Welsh moors

    inhabited by ghosts and demons, he comes

    across an elfchild being chased by a pack of

    hunters' dogs. Wolf captures her and offers

    her to Lord Hugo, the head hunter. Lord

    Hugo is obsessed with the idea that his dead

    wife is alive and being held by the Demon

    Lord of the Underground, and he is

    convinced that the elfchild can lead him to

    her.

    After super-villain Megamind defeats

    his good-guy nemesis, Metro Man, hebecomes bored since there is no one

    left to fight. He creates a new foe,

    Titan , who, instead of using hispowers for good, sets out to destroy the

    world, positioning Megamind to save

    the day for the first time in his life.

    When the kingdoms most wanted and most

    charming - bandit Flynn Rider hides out in amysterious tower, hes taken hostage by Rapunzel, a

    beautiful and feisty tower-bound teen with 70 feet of

    magical, golden hair. Flynns curious captor, whoslooking for her ticket out of the tower where shes

    been locked away for years, strikes a deal with thehandsome thief and the unlikely duo sets off on an

    action-packed escapade, complete with a super-cophorse, an over-protective chameleon and a gruff gang

    You choose: historical eras. Jump into a life from long ag

    You choose who to be, where to go and what to do. Will

    succeed? Will you fail? Will you even survive? It's up to

    You choose: warriors. The life of a warrior is full of dang

    decision-making and glory. Now in our You choose form

    readers can live it. Each choice could lead to fame, riches

    death. You, the reader, decides!

    Taking on a theme with great dramatic appeal, each of the

    book's 10 chapters presents a notable disaster: outbreaks of

    smallpox in North America beginning in the 1600s, the Grea

    Chicago Fire, the Johnstown Flood, the San Francisco

    earthquake of 1906, the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire, thesinking of the Titanic, the 1918 flu pandemic, the 1930s Dus

    Bowl, the 2004 tsunami, and the drowning of New Orleans

    following Hurricane Katrina.

    Stories of magic, superstition, and

    witchcraft were strictly forbidden in

    the little town of Salem Village. But

    a group of young girls ignored thoserules, spellbound by the tales told by

    a woman named Tituba. When

    questioned about their activities, the

    terrified girls set off a whirlwind of

    controversy as they accused

    townsperson after townsperson of

    being witches.
