A Beautiful Holiday Tradition First published 200 years ago this year, E.T.A. Hoffmann’s tale The Nutcracker has enchanted readers, inspired artists and composers, and delighted audiences around the world. Lisbeth Zwerger’s stunning interpretation of The Nutcracker rounds out the story depicted in the ballet, exploring the background of the feud between the Nutcracker and the seven-headed Mouse King, the true role of the mysterious Drosselmeier, the tragic fate of Princess Pirlipat, the spell cast by Mistress Mousie that is finally broken by loyal Marie, and the satisfying, happily-ever-after conclusion to the great battle and fantastic journey. In pictures filled with wit and whimsy, drama, mystery, and magic, Lisbeth Zwerger transports us to the darkest reaches and brightest beauty of this fairy-tale world.
Lisbeth Zwerger has been accorded nearly every prize that can be given, including the highest international award for lifetime achievement, the Hans Christian Andersen Medal. Since 1981 she has devoted her extraordinary talents to children’s literature, to stories as charming and picturesque as her native Vienna. Always surprising, always engaging, her artwork combines technical mastery with an insight and gentleness so rare and captivating that she has been correctly called one of the finest illustrators of the twentieth century.
E.T.A. Hoffmann (Ernst Theodor Amadeus Hoffmann), was a German author and composer. One of his greatest works that has enchanted readers for nearly two hundred years is his novella, The Nutcracker, on which the famous ballet is based.

Hans de Beer
The short North Pole summer is ending, and the reindeer are starting their winter migration. But this year, man has interfered with their journey. A high fence that goes on for miles is right in their path, and piles of giant pipes litter the landscape. The herd is trapped. If they don’t get through, they will perish. Lars has an idea, but will it work?
Lars and the Reindeer
Fans of the Little Polar Bear books will delight in this exciting story with its important message about man’s impact on the environment.

A TEACHER’S GUIDE TO
The Tale of a Flying Mouse Torben Kuhlmann These are dark times for a small mouse. A new invention—the mechanical mousetrap—has caused all the mice but one to flee to America, the land of the free. But with cats guarding the steamships, trans-Atlantic crossings are no longer safe. In the bleakest of places the one remaining mouse has a brilliant idea. He must learn to fly!
Visit our Educator & Librarian page at www.northsouth.com for free, downloadable resources.
Debut illustrator Torben Kuhlmann’s inventive tale and stunning illustrations will capture the imagination of readers—young and old—with the tale of this courageous young mouse.
Translated from the German by Suzanne Levesque. NorthSouth Books $19.95 (96p) ISBN 978-0-7358-4167-3 On Sale May 2014
The Rainbow Fish ISBN: 9781558580091 • 32 pages • Grades K-3
The Rainbow Fish is an international best-seller and a modern classic. Eye-catching foil stamping, glittering on every page, offers instant child appeal, but it is the universal message at the heart of this simple story about a beautiful fish who learns to make friends by sharing his most prized possessions that gives the book its lasting value. An IRA-CBC Children’s Choice, Christopher Award winner, and American Bookseller ABBY winner.
Publisher’s Weekly Starred Review ★ In a project that seamlessly blends elements of a picture book, comic, and novel, gifted newcomer Kuhlmann imagines that the world’s first transatlantic flight was made not by Charles Lindbergh, but by an intrepid German mouse flying in the opposite direction, starting from Hamburg. Driven to desperation by the deaths of many of his compatriots in newly invented mousetraps, the mouse decides to head for America: “A huge statue greeted all who arrive there, whether human or mouse.” Squads of guardian cats rule out ship journeys, and the mouse begins experimenting with flying machines. Kuhlmann makes every detail of the mouse’s endeavor look and sound delightfully plausible, from his da Vinci–like working sketches to his plan to hoist his plane to the top of a tower by attaching it to the gears of the tower’s clock. The fragility of his machine and the owls that watch him like sentinels at every step give the story constant tension: the owls’ golden eyes are painted with eerie menace. It’s all terrific entertainment, and the fame Kuhlmann imagines for the mouse when he finally succeeds (“The Transatlantic Rodent Hero” trumpets a billboard) inspires a future famous aviator—or so Kuhlmann claims. An exceptionally fine debut. Ages 4–up. (May)

My Grandma's a by Todd Tarpley, illustrated by Danny Chatzikonstantinou 40 pages, $17.95 trim: 8.5" x 11" ISBN: 978-0-7358-4199-4
Ethan’s grandma is a little different. In fact, she’s a ninja!
Ethan becomes the hit of the school— as quick as a zip line—the moment his grandma drops from the ceiling and teaches the kids karate moves. That is, until her power kick deflates his team’s soccer ball. Why’d you have to bring your ninja grandma! But could hanging around a ninja have its benefits? The big game is coming, and Ethan is about to find out in this hilarious story that is anything but ordinary.
About the Author: Todd Tarpley lives in a magical kingdom called
New York City, inside a teeny-tiny castle, with a beautiful princess, two ninja sons, and a menagerie of barnyard animals. His previous picture books include Ten Tiny Toes and How About a Kiss for Me? You can visit him at toddtarpley.com.
About the Illustrator: Danny Chatzikonstantinou was born in 1973. He
illustrates children’s books and sometimes writes the words, too. He learned his craft by drawing on napkins at first. Later on, he moved to sketch pads and notebooks. Now he has a full set of sharpened pencils and tons of blank drawing paper that he never uses because he moved back to napkins again. Danny is a self-taught artist who lives and works in Athens, Greece.
