  A great addition to any child's home collection or teacher's read-aloud library. Encouraging thought-provoking conversation between adult and child. 
  In Ginormous Jo's Secret S C Cunningham explains the very link between listening and learning. Though the huge, white, huggable dog called Jo wasn't sure at first when her mum brought home a cuddly little kitten called Vinnie, she grew to love him with time. Vinnie was loving, playful and made her laugh a lot. 
  Because Jo didn't want Vinnie behaving like their noisy, shouty, and greedy neighbours, she introduces him to "Liswat," telling him the great importance of listening and learning from others and the very secret behind her being a clever dog. 
  Does Vinnie now know the meaning of "Liswat?"

  In his introduction to Coyote &, Joe Hayes says, “Many American Indian stories are sacred. They are part of the religion of the people who tell them, and so belong to just one tribe or sometimes just a part of the tribe. Sometimes Coyote plays a role in these religious stories. But the coyote stories in this collection are different. They are told for entertainment. They are especially loved by children, who delight in Coyote’s foolish antics.”
