As a peanutrician for the Talking Peanut kids, Dr. Peanut leads a joyful life. But danger looms when he enters the world of peanut-eating giants. Out there, Talking Peanuts need to watch their step. Disguised as an ant one afternoon, Dr. Peanut eludes a hungry squirrel only to be scooped up by two giant kids. After rejecting several doctorish arguments against eating peanuts, the amused children tell him not to worry; they don t eat anything that talks. This playful, diversely populated picture book reassures us that doctors are friendly and urges even peanuts to speak up.

Can a somewhat obsessive carpenter bear and a free-spirited tinker alligator actually play a third game of checkers despite their entirely complementary differences? QUOTE: In all of our years of teaching, we've found The Checker Players to be the perfect book for children of all ages. Alan Venable has created two comical characters, who, while competing in a simple game of checkers, find their very friendship at stake. How the carpenter and tinker resolve their differences provides a springboard for endless discussions about the value of respect and compromise. -- Ruth Rath and Mary Fessenden

The Checker Players

An orderly carpenter and a chaotic tinker play a game of checkers, but find it not so easy when two such different creatures try to do even a simple thing together. A great book from which children themselves at school or at home will gather insight into themselves and learn how to tolerate differences and cooperate at having fun. Includes a practical afterword for teachers.

Young twin Sister and Brother journey through snow and mud in search of missing parents. Courage, kindness, loyalty, and magical marionettes help reunite the family and revive an ailing natural world. An eco-family tale for children ages 6 to 10. A dramatic script is also available.
