New Release! Horses Wear Shoes, Too
Destined to become a classic!
The picture book Horses Wear Shoes, Too begins:
Jason hurried as fast as he could. He couldn’t wait to get to the stable and ride a pony.
“Silly shoes,” he said to himself. They took so much time to put on, and he didn‘t want to be late. Yesterday, Jason had learned to tie his shoelaces. But when he rushed, his fingers forgot what to do...
That's when Jason thinks it would be easier to be a horse and not have to wear shoes. Jason rides a pony for the very first time and learns about horseshoeing. This charming book was written by Bruce Feldman, a former farrier, a blacksmith who shoes horses. Told with humor and wit, this story is sure to become a classic. Lester Feldman's whimsical illustrations remind readers of a bygone era.

A picture book retelling from author Betty Farber!
In this modern retelling of the Aesop's fable, the country mouse and the city mouse each gain a new appreciation not only for their own familiar neighborhood, but for those surroundings that are different from their own. Artist Ann Hogue's amazing watercolors illuminate the beauty of both settings. This book follows two mice, one from the country, one from the city. Each thinks their home is the most beautiful place. First they visit the country. "Look!" cried Country Mouse. "RED roosters crowing, near RED barns, with RED rosebuds growing all around." Told in verse, this book will delight both young and old. And it brings these friends together, closer than ever by the end of the book--just what is needed in the world today. ⇒Buy Now |
Maye's March for Women's Votes
Vera Maye Shipps is a 19-year old trombone player who yearns to do something important to fight for women’s voting rights. There’s not much opportunity in the rural area where she lives. But then, as a member of the Missouri Ladies Military Band, she is invited to travel 1,000 miles by train to lead a 1913 suffrage parade in Washington, D.C. When the parade route is blocked by a throng of men, Maye and the other band members must act fast to stir the course of history. Written for children ages 8-12, Maye's March for Women's Votes—based on real people and real events—includes passages from her diary.
