A timely treasure for springtime reading by beloved illustrator Mary Engelbreit, Honey Bunny is filled with bunnies, chicks, colored eggs, and other sweet surprises for babies and those that love them!
Accompanying a manuscript Dr. Seuss wrote in 1973, was a letter outlining his hopes of finding "a great color artist who will not be dominated by me." The late Dr. Seuss saw his original text about feelings and moods as part of the "first book ever to be based on beautiful illustrations and sensational color." The quest for an artist finally ended—after the manuscript languished for more than two decades—at the paint brushes of husband-and-wife team Steve Johnson and Lou Fancher whose stunning, expressive paintings reveal such striking images as a bright red horse kicking its heels, a cool and quiet green fish, a sad and lonely purple dinosaur..

Computer Fun Math
By Lisa Trumbauer
Grade 3-5-These interactive activity books have brightly colored pages and lively text and illustrations that will appeal to youngsters. Math includes activities to create simple graphs and charts, make and use measuring tools, understand fractions, and design games. Science teaches students to collect and record data, track the weather, identify parts of an insect, and set up simple experiments. Each book starts with computer basics such as becoming familiar with the keyboard, monitor, and mouse but there are no diagrams or pictures of computer screens illustrating the functions described. Pages have numbered, step-by-step directions
enclosed in colored boxes that are sometimes difficult to read. The books are written in an informal style, with chatty remarks such as "duh-you knew that!" or "...old news, right?" While the subject matter is very elementary, the "how to" directions for following the computer activities require a more sophisticated
reading level. Most children won't have the skill or patience to read all of the directions on their own.
