Everybody Poops!

Justine Avery

"Unabashedly takes the shame away ... Be prepared to giggle along." —The Children's Book Review
Taking the taboo out of POO! ~ as featured in TV shows Dexter and Resident Alien ~
Everybody poops—it’s true! It’s time to blow the door right off the bathroom, and shine a light on what happens on the loo.
For the little ones just discovering the contents of their diapers and nappies, the bigger ones needing reassurance that their most mysterious bodily function is as natural as can be, and the biggest ones who still hold a fondness for toilet humor, Everybody Poops! is piled high with bold and audacious illustrations and the truth about who’s doing the pooing: every body is doing it!
Sure to incite giggling fits and all-ages laughter, Everybody Poops! exposes the least talked about fact we all have in common the world over and among all walks of life, benefiting the youngest of us by opening the discussion, promoting comfort with their bodies, and helping them feel included. Poo pride!

The Red Wings of Christmas

Wesley Eure

A holiday story that is sure to warm the hearts and inspire the imaginations of readers of all ages—from the Land of the Lost and Days of Our Lives actor.   Set mostly inside of Santa’s magical red sack, the action takes place in a land that most of us would call make-believe. However, for one orphaned boy named Albert, this place becomes very real. Wandering the streets of nineteenth-century London on Christmas Eve, Albert seeks warmth and finds it in a red, velvety sack. When he crawls in to sleep, he expects to dream of happiness and love, but ends up discovering something quite different.   Young Albert enters the magical realm of Santa’s great red sack and is welcomed into this fantasy world by a host of happy toys, waiting to be given to grateful children on Christmas Day. However, Albert soon learns that he has not left the danger of the outside world behind. A diabolical toy, known only as No-Name, is determined to stop Christmas. He and the other “Garbles” are snatching the smiles of Albert’s new friends. It’s up to Albert, who is mistaken for a toy, to stop the ever more desperate war.   Wesley Eure’s imaginative writing and Ronald G. Paolillo’s full-color artistic renderings give each character a special breath of life as they cross the pages. The Red Wings of Christmas is sure to become a family holiday classic to be shared season after season.
