Big and LittleJ O H N S T A D L E R

WELCOME to the big top and get ready to experience a spectacular show,hosted by our mouse emcee! Will Ellie the elephant be able to jump from avery tall ladder into a tiny glass of water?

How the Grinch Stole Christmas!A 50th Anniversary Retrospective

D R . S E U S SWITH COMMENTARY BY C H A R L E S D . C O H E N

INSIDE THIS VERY SPECIAL anniversary edition of How the Grinch StoleChristmas!, you’ll find the complete, original text and illustrations by Dr.Seuss, along with 32 fascinating pages of commentary, footnotes andarchival images—written and compiled by renowned collector and Seussscholar Charles D. Cohen. In chatty, conversational style, Cohen reflectsupon Dr. Seuss’s changing view of Christmas over the years and traces theevolution of the Grinch, his dog Max, and the inhabitants of Who-ville.Also together for the first time are three rarely seen Seuss holidayofferings: “Perfect Present,” a poem about the fluff-footed, frizzle-topped,three-fingered Zift and why it makes the ideal gift; “The Hoobub and theGrinch,” a story about a con artist Grinch who sells pieces of green string;and the spiritually compelling painting and poem “A Prayer for a Child.”

Charles D. Cohen’s trove of Seussiana is likely the most comprehensive inthe world. Items from the collection have been on display at the National Dr.Seuss Memorial in Springfield, Massachusetts, and at the Children’s Museumof Manhattan. He is the author of The Seuss, the Whole Seuss, and Nothing butthe Seuss. He lives and practices dentistry in South Deerfield, Massachusetts.

Golden LegacyHow Golden Books Won Children’s Hearts,

Changed Publishing Forever, and Became an American Icon Along the Way

L E O N A R D S . M A R C U S

THE YEAR 2007 marks the 65th anniversary of a bold experiment: thelaunch of the Little Golden Books during the dark days of World War II. Ata time when the literacy rate was not nearly as high as it is now—andprivation was felt by nearly all—quality books for children would now beavailable at a price nearly everyone could afford (25 cents), and sold whereordinary people shopped. Golden Legacy is a lively history of a company, aline of books, the groundbreaking writers and artists who created them, theclever mavericks who marketed and sold them, and the cultural landscapethat surrounded them.

Leonard S. Marcus has written many award-winning books, including MargaretWise Brown: Awakened by the Moon. A frequent contributor to The New YorkTimes Book Review, Washington Post Book World, The Horn Book, and PublishersWeekly, Marcus’s book reviews have been featured in every issue of Parentingmagazine since it was founded in 1987. He lives in Brooklyn, New York.

MOST OF THE TIME, Randolph is very, very nice. But when his friend Ivygets invited to a really great sleepover birthday party and he doesn’t,Randolph feels a little left out, and sad, and mad. And then he goes a littlecrazy! Will he ever turn back to the nice friend he once was? We hope so!

This nutty friendship story recognizes that even best friends aren’t alwaysgood friends (sometimes they can be downright rotten!). Kids’ squirmierfeelings are conveyed with good humor and empathy in this reassuringtale about the icky feelings we all have, even though we are mostly very,very nice.

Charise Mericle Harper is the celebrated creator of Fashion Kitty andImaginative Inventions. She once experienced intense jealousy over a box ofpancake mix. She lives with her husband, their children, and a personablecat in Mamaroneck, New York.

The problemis, Abby knows that she can do certain things that other people can’t.Sometimes, when she holds an object in her hand, she’s overpowered bysounds and pictures—sounds and pictures that might just show where theowner is and what he or she is doing. Abby thinks of this as her “magicnation,” because that is what her kindergarten teacher told her it was called.Now 11, Abby has an inkling that her teacher may have been saying it washer imagination, which unfortunately, she knows it is not. Some things arehappening in her mother’s detective agency—cases where Abby’s “MagicNation Thing” might come in handy. But does Abby want to admit thatsuch a sensible girl could have such an unsensible power?

Lyra and Pan decide to help—witches are friends,of course—but the closer their winding walk leads them toward theinfamous Oxford alchemist, the stronger Lyra’s sense that something isamiss.

The Sweet, Terrible, Glorious YearI Truly, Completely Lost It

L I S A S H A N A H A N

IN MY FAMILY, when anyone rides the wave of their emotions, we say they’rechucking a birkett. When the emotion drives out all common sense, we saythey’re chucking a big one. The telltale signs are: flaming cheeks, shortness ofbreath, bulging eyes, and a prolonged illogical outburst.

Gemma Stone is convinced that it’s always unseemly to chuck a birkett andthat it’s actually insane to chuck one in front of a complete stranger. Butthat was before she fell for a boy who barely knows she exists, before sheauditioned for the school play, before she met the family of freaks hersister Debbie is marrying into, before the unpredictable Raven De Headtook an interest in her, and before she realized that at the right time and forthe right reason, a birkett could be a beautiful thing.

The stunning conclusion to the bestsellingauthor’s shapeshifter series.

The Kiesha’ra: Volume Five

WyvernhailA M E L I A A T W A T E R - R H O D E S

HAI HAS ALWAYS been an outsider. With a falcon mother and a deceasedcobra father, she is considered a mongrel by most, an ally by some, and afriend by few. Hai’s broken falcon wings are a painful reminder of the lifeshe once led on the island of Ahnmik. And here in Wyvern’s Court, theavian and serpiente royal family keep their distance, refusing toacknowledge her cobra bloodline. They know that Hai’s magic is so volatile,she can barely control it, and images of the past and future threaten tooverwhelm her.

When Hai’s cousin, Oliza Shardae Cobriana, abdicates the throne ofWyvern’s Court, Hai has visions only of destruction: the serpiente kingSalem, dying in her arms; the dutiful guard, Nicias, unable to save ageneration of children; and Wyvern’s Court engulfed in flames.

Now Hai will do anything to protect her new home—even if it meansbetraying the very people who need her most.

R A F A E L Á B A L O S

GRIMPOW HAD NO idea who the dead man was, but hidden in hisleather bag was a treasure that would change his life forever. Ruby andemerald encrusted daggers, silver coins, jewels, and a letter with a goldenseal depicting a snake swallowing its own tail. And clutched in the man’sfirm grip—a stone. A stone that will shape Grimpow’s destiny. For when heholds it, strange things begin to happen. Visions of places he’s never beenfill his mind and he’s able to read the strange language in the letter, amessage meant for someone else entirely.

So begins Grimpow’s journey with the stone—a centuries-long journey thathas driven sane men crazy, turned peaceful men violent, and made strong menpowerless. No man has ever unlocked its secrets. But no boy has ever tried.

“Fine fun for fans of both Kafka andSpiderman.”—Kirkus Reviews

Fly on the WallE . L O C K H A R T

AT THE MANHATTAN School for Art and Music, where everyone is“different” and everyone is “special,” Gretchen Yee feels ordinary. She’s thekind of girl who sits alone at lunch, drawing pictures of Spider-Man, so shewon’t have to talk to anyone.

One day, Gretchen wishes that she could be a fly on the wall in the boys’locker room—just to learn more about guys. Fly on the Wall is the story ofhow that wish comes true.

“With an appropriate nod and wink to Kafka, this unexpectedly sharpcomedy charts its own metamorphosis.”—The Horn Book Magazine

E. Lockhart is the author of The Boyfriend List, and its companion, The BoyBook. She has never turned into an animal of any sort and her knowledge ofthe boys’ locker room is purely imaginary. Visit her on the Web atwww.theboyfriendlist.com.
