Children

River Heights Elementary is throwing a fall festival! It promises to be full of fun games, great food, and amazing amusement park rides — even a roller coaster! All of the kids in River Heights, including Nancy, George, and Bess, are very excited and have been working hard to earn extra money for festival tickets. So when Nancy’s friend Ned claims someone stole his hard-earned tickets, the Clue Crew jumps into action.

The girls are in a race against time to find Ned’s tickets. And it turns out the culprit might have a very different reason for needing them….

This interactive board book will introduce toddlers to life on a farm! Children can trace the felt trails to help plow the field, feel the growing corn, trace the bales of hay, brush the horse’s mane, and much more. Colorful sheets of felt embedded between the board pages create a cascading effect that is not only visually appealing but makes turning the pages of this book very easy for little hands. In addition to the tactile experience, this book provides items to seek and find on every page!

Nancy and her friends are headed for the shores of Cape Mermaid, New Jersey, where they are hoping to spend a fun-filled week. But as soon as they arrive at an old inn on the beach, strange things start to happen—spooky noises, a message for help, and a possible ghost sighting. Could the rumored ghost of Cape Mermaid actually exist? Or is there more to the story than meets the eye? It’s up to the Clue Crew to solve the mystery!

Poor starry giraffe: every time he reaches for a yummy red apple from a tall tree, one of his hungry friends comes along and the generous giraffe shares the treat. Just when you think he has nothing left to eat for himself, a turn of the page shows otherwise: the starry giraffe is at an apple orchard and there are apples and trees galore!

A disarmingly delightful debut picture book from Andrew Bergmann, an accomplished New York based artist and storyteller, The Starry Giraffe puts a surprising twist on a classic story.
