Published: Vintage, 04/01/2004
Bookseller: Catherine
Title: The Secret History
Comments:
A psychological thriller, a mystery, a coming-of-age and loss-of-innocence story... this gripping book is difficult to characterize. During the dead of winter in a small New England college, a gropu of bright and eccentric students cross the line between good and evil. Not at all a "who dunnit", but more of a "why dunnit", this book is a well-written and literary page-turner.

Title: Naked Mole Rat Gets Dressed
Comments:
A book about a cat? Been there, done that. A dog? Ho-hum. A bird (say, a pigeon?) So many! "NAKED MOLE RATE GETS DRESSED" provides childrens book readers and readees with a welcome and very fun break. Yes! Naked mole rats do exist in real life - you can look it up. Do they also like to get dressed up once in a while? We like to think that they just might! A very fun and funny book with an important message about diversity. Enjoy!

Published: Puffin, 03/01/1996
Title: The True Story of the 3 Little Pigs
Bookseller: Catherine
Comments:
This is a HILARIOUS, laugh-out-loud version of the 3 Little Pigs, told from the perspective of the wolf. (Alexander T. Wolf, but you can call him "Al.") Al has quite the knack for telling a great story! I found this version far more entertaining than the original. Highly recommended as a "read-aloud" book
Ages 3-8

"Sophie's Window" is a charming tale of friendship between a bird and a dog. The story is funny, sweet and the dialogue lends itself well to being read aloud. Children will be entertained by the action in the story as well as comforted by the fact that Caruso (the bird) is able to overcome his fear of flying with the help of his new friend.
