Fortunately, Unfortunately

Author: Michael Foreman

Fortunately, Unfortunately is one of those books that shows that sometimes good luck is not so good, and bad, not so bad. A humorous and enjoyable book that really engages young children.

Inside Outside

Illustrator: Lizi Boyd
Publisher: Chronicle Books
Recommended Age Range: 3 to 5

Take a look at Inside Outside and you won’t be disappointed. Through the seasons, one child creates and explores his indoor, and outdoor, worlds with windows revealing just what is waiting with each turn of the page.
A great book to inspire new ideas and activities for your child.

LOOK!

Two brilliant books that take one picture and, by “zooming out,” move the stories in a new and very unique direction. Be prepared to be surprised! Unexpected adventures ahead!
