All About Dinosaurs (cat In The Hats Learning Library)-Fabricante : Random House Books For Young Readers-Descripcion Original: Journey through the fascinating world of dinosaurs with everyones favorite Cat in the Hat in this positively prehistoric adventure!

From School Library Journal Kindergarten-Grade 3 Two titles that feature that favorite old cat, along with Thing One, Thing Two, and Sally and Dick. Both are told in rhythmic couplets. Di-no-saur introduces fossils using a museum as the setting. With a club for a tail/and a back full of spikes,/this dino was strong /like an army tank. Yikes! The dinosaurs names are given, as well as their physical traits. Fish uses a deep-sea sub to take readers through five undersea zones, illustrating the types of fish that would be found at each depth. Even after close examination, the pictures cannot be easily distinguished from those drawn by Dr. Seuss. A good choice for kids who still like their nonfiction told in story form and laced with humor. Sharon R. Pearce, Geronimo Public School, OK Copyright 1999 Reed Business Information, Inc.

-Titulo Original : One Fish Two Fish Red Fish Blue Fish-Fabricante : Random House Books For Young Readers-Descripcion Original: Review Did you ever fly a kite in bed? Did you ever walk with ten cats on your head? Such are the profound, philosophical queries posed in this well-loved classic by Theodor Dr. Seuss Geisel. While many rhymes in this couplet collection resemble sphinx-worthy riddles, Seusss intention is clear: teach children to read in a way that is both entertaining and educational. It matters little that each wonderful vignette has nothing to do with the one that follows. (We move seamlessly from a one-humped Wump and Mister Gump to yellow pets called the Zeds with one hair upon their heads.) Children today will be as entranced by these ridiculous rhymes as they have been since the books original publication in 1960--so amused and enchanted, in fact, they may not even notice they are learning to read! (Ages 4 to 8) Count and explore the zany world and words of Seuss in this classic picture book. From counting to opposites to Dr. Seusss signature silly rhymes, this book has everything a beginning reader needs! Meet the bumpy Wump and the singing Ying, and even the winking Yink who drinks pink ink. The silly rhymes and colorful cast of characters will have every child giggling from morning to night. From near to far from here to there, funny things are everywhere. Originally created by Dr. Seuss himself, Beginner Books are fun, funny, and easy to read. These unjacketed hardcover early readers encourage children to read all on their own, using simple words and illustrations. Smaller than the classic large format Seuss picture books like The Lorax and Oh, the Places You’ll Go!, these portable packages are perfect for practicing readers ages 3-7, and lucky parents too! About the Author THEODOR SEUSS GEISEL--aka Dr. Seuss--is one of the most beloved childrens book authors of all time.

-Titulo Original : Go, Dog Go (i Can Read It All By Myself, Beginner Books)-Fabricante : Random House Books For Young Readers-Descripcion Original: Review Life lessons? Romance? Literary instruction? Go, Dog. Go! offers all this and more, wrapped up in one simply worded, warmly hued package. Using single-syllable words in rhythmic repetition, and introducing colors and prepositions, this Seuss-styled classic has been an early favorite of children since 1961. For those looking for deeper meaning in a beginning reader book, here youll find nothing less than a microcosm of life. Green dogs, yellow dogs, big dogs, little dogs. Dogs who prefer cars, dogs who favor skis. All represent the diversity a child will find in the world. And the slow-to-bud romance between the cheerfully oblivious yellow dog and the mincing pink poodle explains more succinctly than most self-help books what goes on in many grown-up relationships. Nonetheless, Eastman takes the concept of primary to heart, with his simple silly phrases and solidly colored illustrations. Not only will this book inspire peals of laughter in kids, it will also help them make the magical connection between those mysterious black squiggles on the page, and the words they hear and speak.

The events of that long-­ago summer gave rise to families made closer by games played late into the night or on rainy vacation days. It also ushered in a magical factory, a spectacularly futuristic library, dazzling contests, an unquenchable quest for knowledge, stupendous surprises, and fantastic fun unlike any the world had ever seen or experienced.But we’re getting ahead of ourselves.In 1968, Luigi had just turned thirteen. He was the sixth of the ten Lemoncello children. His older brothers and sisters were all super-­serious, super-­talented, straight-­A students. Luigi, on the other hand, loved making up stories. He loved solving puzzles. And he really, really loved playing games.Everyone said he was, well, different. Maybe even peculiar. Definitely odd.On weekends, Luigi’s father ran the projector at the Willoughby Bijou Theater on Main Street in Alexandriaville, Ohio. Whenever there was a Saturday matinee for kids, Mr. Lemoncello would sneak his children up to the projection booth with him.It was the only way the whole family could afford to see movies.For free.The Lemoncello kids would take turns peering through the small window next to the clacking movie projector. They’d each watch for a few minutes and then tell their brothers and sisters what had happened.“The millionaire was boxing with the bad guy,” Luigi said after his turn at the window.And then he added his own spin.“That’s when a kangaroo hopped into the ring!” he told his brothers and sisters.“A kangaroo?” exclaimed the youngest Lemoncello, Sofia.“Oh yes. And the kangaroo can really sing!”Luigi’s sixteen-­year-­old brother, Fabio, motioned for Luigi to step aside. “It’s my turn. You’re being goofy.”“No,” said Sofia. “Let Luigi go again.

Not merely a realm of ankles, arches, and toes--as this self-proclaimed Wacky Book of Opposites attests--the podiatry province welcomes all kinds: Slow feet/Quick feet/Well feet/Sick feet. Dr. Seuss has put his best foot forward here, in a whimsical approach to showcasing opposites. Wet feet contrast dry feet, and low feet contrast high feet. Though hot feet and cold feet arent specifically referenced, we get the sense that those are okay too. As usual, the rhymes are quick and quirky, and Seusss illustrations will knock kids socks off.

Also, why is Madeline always out EXACTLY when the citys most notorious villain commits crimes?! Is it possible that Katies upstairs neighbor is really a super villain? Can Katie wrangle a whole lot of wayward cats, save a best friendship (why is Beth barely writing back? And whos this boy she keeps talking about?!), AND crack the biggest story in the citys history? Some heroes have capes . . . Katie has cats! From School Library Journal Gr 3-6-Katie Spera, 12, lives in an alternate New York City where Yelp-related superheroes abound, but all she cares about is attending summer camp with her best friend, Bethany. Her mother cant afford it, so Katie tries job after job, all ending in comedic disaster, until she finds work caring for her neighbors 217 genius felines.
