Sinopsis

Eustace was a naughty monk who lived in France during the Middle Ages. Monks usually spent their time praying and reading the bible and being good, but Eustace was not like that at all! People told lots of stories about Eustace because he had such an exciting life. Can you guess which of these stories are true and which are made up?

 
This engaging and enjoyable book for younger readers tells an intriguing story with an educational twist. Exploring the life of a real historical figure through verifiable accounts and fictional stories from the time, this colourful tale provides a fascinating and fun way of introducing children to the medieval period.

 
With its simple language and bright illustrations, it is particularly suitable for reading with young children or for early readers to try on their own.

From the state flower to the state flying mammal, author and illustrator Deborah Ousley Kadair celebrates her love of the Lone Star State in this colorful tribute to Texas’s most famous state symbols. With clever rhymes and her trademark collage illustrations, this what-am-I guessing game teaches young children about seven important state symbols and instills in them Kadair’s passion about Texas heritage.  Kadair re-creates the vast Texan sky on the page, and readers use her clues and the shape of the clouds to discover what symbol she describes. She incorporates information on the adoption of the state symbols, including the monarch butterfly. This species of butterfly became the state’s official insect in 1995 after the urging of local students. With fun facts about each state symbol, I Spy in the Texas Sky is a perfect way to invite children to learn about Texas.

A little girl tries to prove she can do everything in this heartwarming story that reminds us how satisfying it is to grow up surrounded by love. 
 
I Can Do It Too! affirms a little girl’s growing independence as she, too, can begin to do all the things she sees her parents, relatives, and neighbors do: pouring juice at breakfast, strumming a guitar, and even riding a bike! The simple cadence of text and direct-to-the-heart art result in a book as warm and generous as its message, providing reading pleasure for toddlers, older siblings, and the grown-ups who love them. 
 
“Her enthusiasm is contagious. . . . A winner for perusing alone or reading at storytimes.” —Booklist 
 
“Physical skills are not the only kind in focus here, for a happy contagion of kindness is also afoot. The support of her family and congenial companions has the very finest of effects, and best of all, at the end of it all, is our little heroine’s unspoiled and generous display of encouragement for one even smaller than she.” —Kirkus Reviews 
 
“Young children are continually faced with challenging developmental milestones, and this affirming read-aloud offers lots of encouragement. . . . Colorful, full-page illustrations show her pouring juice like Dad, holding a book like Grandpa, putting on clothes like her big sister, etc. Preschoolers are likely to repeat the catchy title refrain. A good choice for toddler collections.” —School Library Journal
