I promise I won't wander off. I'll stay on the rock."And she did. Even when it grew legs . . . and a little head.Bear and Bird are the best of friends, but yesterday they had a falling out.

"Yoon presents the wide-eyed subject's boisterous personality with confident sketches that capture the small dog's outsize holiday energy." --Publishers Weekly (starred review) High five! It's winter! For one spirited little puppy, winter means romping in the snow, birds to chase, fragrant evergreen trees, and joy, joy, joy! Then again, winter also means . . . oddly unfriendly deer? Millions of little lights? Contorting inflatable snowmen? Wait, what? If this is all winter too, then winter is kind of . . . weird! Helen Yoon's fresh and hilarious take on the winter season--part of a quirky new series of picture books--is a blend of bumbling affection and slack-jawed wonder.

Playful, interactive, and full of whimsy, Sean Taylor's collection of poems invites little ones to get their fingers, hands, and wiggles ready. One little friendin the playground . . . sliding.Two little friends playing chase and . . . hiding.What better way to get little ones excited about poems than to make them part of the delivery? In the hallowed tradition of nursery rhymes and songs like "Itsy Bitsy Spider," this imaginative collection entices children to use their fingers, hands, and sometimes whole bodies to bring a variety of verses to life. Whether the subject is sailing ships or stomping dinosaurs, falling snow or popping bubbles, jumping onto waterslides or riding a crowded elevator, Sean Taylor's rhythmic read-aloud verses pair with Fiona Woodcock's fresh, colorful illustrations, offering clues to the finger actions kids can follow--unless they're happily acting things out already, using shapes and movements all their own.

Frances loves horses and can’t wait for her first riding lesson. It can’t be all that hard, can it? From the creator ofThe Camping Trip, this spirited story is for kids who like horses or are trying something new.Frances adores horses and knows everything about them—at least she thinks she does. But when she arrives at her friend Mae’s house for her first horseback-riding lesson sporting a bike helmet and rain boots, Frances quickly discovers that she might not know as much as she thought she did. Barns are actually a little stinky, and it takes a lot of time to brush a horse and tack it up (what does that even mean?). Not to mention that horses are much bigger in real life, and being so far off the ground can be a little scary! Will Frances be brave enough to ride Snowball all by herself, or will it be too different from what she’s imagined? Jennifer K. Mann’s exuberant story encourages readers to get back in the saddle and reminds them that sometimes reality doesn’t match our expecta

Jarvis revisits his beloved, sometimes befuddled, duo in a fifth set of stories where gentle mix-ups and genuine friendship abound.Bear and Bird may not always understand each other, but they both want nothing more than for their best friend to be happy. So when they each find today’s date circled in red, they obviously assume it’s the other one’s birthday (so sorry, Snail!). And when Bird puts her pal through his paces—to prove he’s himself and not his look-alike cousin—she finds a sweet way to soothe an unhappy Bear when the test is done. Whether it’s Bird bravely helping Bear to retrieve a ball from a cave full of stinky goo (or so they’ve heard) or both of them putting their faith in a flying umbrella when Bird blithely removes the candy trail meant to lead them home, Jarvis’s subtle humor and sweet illustrations create a charming world that young readers are eager to come back to.

But the ghost is not there to usher Charisse to the Great Beyond. Rather, she has ot

Steadman, New York Times best-selling author of Skandar and the Unicorn Thief When ten-year-old Felix drops a penny in the wishing fountain at the center of town, he really doesn't expect his seventeen-year-old sister to suddenly like him again, or to offer to share a cinnamon bun or watch cartoons like they used to.

Is there ever such a thing as being too considerate? It's another comedy of errors in this fourth set of stories featuring Jarvis's lovable duo. "Bird, why are you blowing in my face?" said Bear."I'm just stretching my cheeks," said Bird. "Important to stretch your cheeks." Bear and Bird are the kind of friends who just want to make each other happy. So when Bird realizes Bear has had a leaf stuck to his face all day, she goes to comical extremes not to embarrass him--even if it means encouraging a new trend. And when they both grab the same excellent stick on a windy day, they outdo each other trying to give it back--until Bear comes up with a better use for their imagination. Whether following a hilariously--and touchingly--circular path on Swapsy Day or discovering there are as many times of day as there are things to do, Jarvis's classic pair fuses humor and heart in another quartet of adventures.

Bird feels a flutter of jealousy when Bear is unduly entertained by the jocular Mole in Jarvis’s third set of stories about the endearing pair.Usually, a new wonky stick for Bird’s collection would be exciting, but . . . not today. “Hmm,” said Bear. “Well, in that case, I think it’s time for . . .The Dance.”Bear and Bird are the best of friends.

In Polly Dunbar’s hands, a familiar—and very funny—tale of leaving-the-house stress takes on a singular charm with her young child’s drawings in the mix.Josh and Mom are heading out to Aunty Nelly’s birthday party, and it's time for Josh to put on his shoes. But Josh is in his own little world, and the more Mom begs him to put his shoes on, the wilder his imagination becomes. Filled with humor and winsome illustrations, Polly Dunbar’s one-of-a-kind story—brilliantly showcasing her young son’s artwork as clues to what’s going on in Josh’s mind—speaks to the universal struggle around getting ready to leave the house, a scenario both children and caregivers can relate to.The bright renderings infuse the work with joy even when Josh is scolded; with love and empathy, Dunbar captures both a child’s irrepressible imagination and a parent’s frustration. Readers will enjoy following the doings of a tiny caterpillar on each page. A leaving-the-house battle that all can relate to.—Kirkus Reviews
