Growing Up & Facts of Life

The creator of Pepito the Brave, that "genuine poster-bird for pluckiness"( Publishers Weekly ), returns with another small but determined hero, Little Pig.It's Mother Pig's birthday, and her son has sneaked out of the pen to find a gift before she wakes up. Little Pig spies a great one-a pretty flower-but just as he is about to pluck it, a bee buzzes up and begs him not to. Little Pig cheerfully leaves the flower and searches for another gift, but each one he sees-fresh hay, shiny seeds, and even a lump of dirt-belongs to someone else in the farmyard. Little Pig's basket is empty, but his generous heart will lead him to the perfect present.Using few words and crayon-bright colors, Scott Beck has crafted another sweet, spare picture book for preschoolers.

Monster Sleepover!

Science Fiction & Fantasy

Harry N. Abrams

Simple, lyrical text and engaging illustrations take preschoolers on a tour of life for a young family living in a cozy house in a lovely little town and the many people they meet while traveling through town.

Little House, Little Town

A sweet treat for Halloween, birthdays, or any time of the year! From the author-illustrator of Little House, Little Town comes a warm and funny tale with an unusual cast of characters. Ben the monster has planned a surprise party for Doris the dragon’s birthday. At this unforgettable monster bash, the birthday dragon blows on her candles to light them, the robot is a little too enthusiastic about hitting the birthday pinãta, and the host monster finds horns an impediment in a game of trampoline. Each spread, illustrated in panels, contains its own discreet episode and joke, perfect for little children to linger over. The visual-based humor is ideal for kids too young to read, while the brief, accessible text encourages those just learning to decode words. Once again, Scott Beck proves he has just the right sensibility for the preschool set in this gem of a book.
