Surprise! Surprise!

Sleepy Time

by Gyo Fujikawa

by Gyo Fujikawa

One lovely, lazy day in the meadow, rabbit decides it’s high time he and his animal friends plan something fun. He convinces the group to have a race, and off all the critters go, running faster and faster—to the collective big surprise that awaits them at the end! After 30 years out of print, this springtime delight from the beloved Gyo Fujikawa is back in a board book format.

Babies yawning, babies bathing, babies sweetly slumbering: day is done and it’s time for bed, in this brand new board edition of Gyo Fujikawa’s classic book. Fujikawa’s gorgeous illustrations contrast the children’s nighttime rituals with the horse that sleeps standing up, the lazy sloth that snoozes upside down, and animals that doze the winter away.

About the Author/Illustrator Gyo Fujikawa (1908–1999) made a career in the advertising world and also enjoyed a lengthy stint at the Walt Disney Studios where she designed the large-book version of Fantasia. In 1957, she illustrated her first picture book, A Child’s Garden of Verses. Many others followed, some of which she also wrote. Babies, published in 1963, stands as a landmark: it was the first children’s book to depict infants of all races and nations sharing growing experiences. Fujikawa’s books have been translated into 17 languages and are read in more than 22 countries.

Parents and children will find this book a lovely way to say “good night.” ■ Return of two popular titles, now in a new sturdy

by Mercer Mayer From “A” for “airplane” to “Z” for “Zebra” (pausing along the way for “Hula-Hoop” and “Pillow”), each page is jam-packed with amusing ABC action. This sturdy edition of a Mercer Mayer favorite brings back a classic early learning concept book for preschoolers. About the Author/Illustrator Mercer Mayer received his first big break when a family friend gave him the names of some of the most reputable children’s book editors. Mayer set out with a bag filled with his sketches and doodles, and luck was with him: he was asked to illustrate The Gillygoofang for The Dial Press and Outside My Window for Harper and Row. The first book that was truly his own was A Boy, a Dog, and a Frog (The Dial Press, 1967) followed by his classic picture book There’s a Nightmare in My Closet a year later. In 1976, he joined Golden Publishing and soon began publishing his phenomenally successful Little Critter® and Little Monster® books.

A Smelly Story

Hop, Hop, and Away!

Ice Cream for Breakfast

The Mixed-Up Mail Mystery

Oh, no! When Huckle Cat took out the garbage, his watch fell into the trash—and the garbage truck carried it away. How will he get it back? Follow the Great Big Schoolhouse gang as they go on their smelliest adventure yet!

What fun: it’s show-and-tell in Miss Honey’s classroom! Everyone has something to share, including Huckle Cat, who brought his pet frog. Then froggy hops, hops away, jumping from person to person…and causing some classic Scarry chaos that will delight young readers!

Ice cream for breakfast? That makes perfect sense on “backward day,” when Huckle Cat and the gang dress, walk, and play backward. Miss Honey even has the class SPELL backward. It sure is a y-k-c-a-w day.

The Great Big Schoolhouse gang is off to solve a mystery! When Huckle Cat finds an old letter tucked away inside a library book, he and his friends set out to find the writer and deliver the mail. Fortunately, their search has a sweet (and yummy!) ending.

First Word Search: Phonics Fun

My First Puzzles: Easy First Puzzles

Illustrated by Gary LaCoste

by Helene Hovanec, illustrated by Ed Shems

Phonics is one of the best paths to reading success— and these word searches, with their appealing design, are a great way to begin! The categories include Long A words, such as flake and halo; “BL” blends like blue and bloom; and “NG” combinations that include bang, gong, and song. Each one will help kids recognize the sound and letter combinations that form the building blocks of our language.

Three-and four-year-olds will love the challenge of Easy First Puzzles, which tests their familiarity with everyday words and concepts. By completing a maze, they’ll help Bo Peep find her sheep. “Picture Crossword” fun begins with an image, such as a bird, house, and school desk; the object, then, is to write its name in the grid. Other activities include an “Up in the Air” connect-the-dots featuring things you’ll see in the sky, and “Shoe In,” where kids match up shoes (such as ballerina slippers) with their likely owners.

World Word Search by Toni Lynn Cloutier Search the world to find the words. This clever collection of word searches demands a keen eye and offers a fun way to test kids’ knowledge of geography. That’s because each puzzle is shaped like a map, and all the words relate to that particular continent or country. For example, Africa features Algeria on up to Zimbabwe. A tribute to Planet Earth finishes this global group of searches. Print

Rather than chronologically unspooling the entire enormous history of the conflict, Axelrod helps make the events of the war understandable by identifying and focusing in on only the most significant stories in each theater.

Napoleon, CEO

6 Principles to Guide & Inspire Modern Leaders by Alan Axelrod The next in Alan Axelrod’s engaging and popular CEO series spotlights a perfect subject: Napoleon, the brilliant military strategist who also laid the administrative and judicial foundations for much of Western Europe. Axelrod looks at this much-studied figure in a new way, exploring six areas that constitute the core of what made Napoleon a great leader: Audacity, Vision, Empathy, Strategy, Logistics, and Tactics. Within these areas Axelrod formulates approximately 60 lessons framed in military analogies, valuable for anyone who aspires to leadership, whether in the boardroom or the Oval Office. n The business media embraced Axelrod’s previous CEO

The King Whisperers

Power Behind the Throne, from Rasputin to Rove by Kerwin Swint Throughout history, behind so many de facto rulers, there can often be found a shadowy puppetmaster pulling the strings. Using examples that span the globe and historical periods (from Machiavelli, Catherine de Medici, and Alexander Hamilton to Dick Cheney, Zhou Enlai, and Joseph Stalin), Swint shows how each of these notorious “king whisperers” employed his or her unique style of power politics to wrest control. From spies and silver-tongued devils, to the truly evil, this is a brilliant tapestry of behindthe-scenes schemers of all shapes and sizes.

About the Author Kerwin Swint is a Professor of Political Science at Kennesaw State University and the author of Mudslingers: The 25 Dirtiest Political Campaigns of All Time and Dark Genius: The Influential Career of Legendary Political Operative and Fox News Founder Roger Ailes.

The Mad Bomber of New York The Extraordinary True Story of the Manhunt That Paralyzed a City by Michael M. Greenburg Between 1940 and 1957, 33 bombs—strategically placed in Grand Central, Penn Station, Radio City Music Hall, Macy’s and other populous areas of New York—paralyzed the city, sending shockwaves of fear through an unsuspecting public. George Metesky, the “Mad Bomber,” unleashed a reign of terror that reverberated through America’s social, legal, and political landscape, ultimately spurring the birth of modern criminal profiling when a crime psychiatrist was called in to assist in the manhunt. Compelling historical true crime, The Mad Bomber of New York is the gripping tale of two individuals engaged in a deadly game of hide-and-seek, with the city of New York caught in the crosshairs.

Even though there are hundreds of types of fish for sale, most chefs know only a few varieties. That’s where Barton Seaver comes in with his unique approach: By combining all manner of fish (not just the familiar standbys) with loads of fresh vegetables, he fosters sustainability both in the sea and on the farm. Organized by season, For Cod and Country features only fish caught in those months (plus “a fifth season” for farmed fish), along with ideas for preparation, seasonings, and lists of alternate fish to substitute in inventive new dishes. n Rising young chef who was named Chef of the Year 2009

Barton Seaver has created three highly rated restaurants in Washington, DC. Seaver has been lauded as a leader in sustainability by Seafood Choices Alliance, was named a Fellow with the Blue Ocean Institute, and works with the Ocean Now program at the National Geographic Society to influence large corporations and consumers toward a more responsible and sustainable sourcing ethic. He is currently working on a television series entitled Turning the Tide for National Geographic. Barton lives in Washington, DC.

Focus: Letters

In the clouds, the bark of a tree, a winking parking meter, mischievous machinery: faces seem to be everywhere, emerging from everyday items, nature, and chance compositions. Focus: Found Faces celebrates the humor— and humanity—of encountering familiar features in unexpected places. Shot by everyday photographers, these delightfully surprising images convey a sense of joy, discovery, and magic.

Whether they’re glowing from a neon sign or scrawled as graffiti on the wall, letters are both meaningful and beautiful. They also seem to pop up where you least expect it—on a bicycle wheel that looks like an “O” or wooden boards that form an “E.” With approximately 250 images taken by amateur photographers, Focus: Letters shines a spotlight on the infinity of ways letters decorate our world…proving that sometimes the vehicle can be even more interesting then the message itself.

Advanced Imaging by Joseph Meehan The digital revolution has opened a world of new avenues for photographers to explore: now, they have the ability to replicate the image quality of sophisticated, traditional photographs, or to take their art into another realm altogether.
