Bridget, the sassy gator from the Glades, returns for more high-energy fun in this sequel to Zack's Alligator. Zack takes Bridget to school for show-and-tell, where she sings, skateboards, and generally turns the classroom upside down. For Zack's class, show-and-tell will never be the same!
When Bridget the alligator arrives in the mail, she's only the size of a key chain! But after Zack soaks her in water, she grows into a real live alligator. Bridget wrestles the garden hose and swings from the monkey bars. And what other alligator can do cartwheels?
Before he became a bestselling novelist with The Death and Life of Bobby Z, Don Winslow spent 15 years as an arson investigator. His expert knowledge pays off in California Fire and Life, a giant fireball of a thriller about ace arson investigator Jack Wade. Want to know why thick, oily soot on glass might be a sign of arson? Or why arsonists never burn their dogs? Or what the presence of "alligator char" means? You'll learn about this and much more, as Jack sifts through the ashes of a mansion in Orange County on behalf of the insurance company that he works for.
Carl Hiaasen's novels invariably test the talents and challenge the sanity of synopsis writers. The zany plot knot of Nature Girl features a headstrong "queen of lost causes," an obnoxious telemarketer and his spouse, a particularly persistent sexual harasser, a former drug runner ex-husband pursuer and a failed alligator wrestler. Shaken vigorously and adding a pinch of salt, these critters produce an uproariously funny whodunit.
Excellent book for teaching chunks of language and basic English structures.Can you do it? ‘ I can do it!’ is the confidence-building message of this fun-filled interactive picture book.
Colorful collage illustrations and a rhyming text encourage readers to copy the actions of familiar animals such as the wiggle of an alligator, the stomp of an elephant, and the thump of a gorilla.
