Review & Description

Strega Nona -- "Grandma Witch" -- is the source for potions, cures, magic, and comfort in her Calabrian town. Her magical everfull pasta pot is especially intriguing to hungry Big Anthony. He is supposed to look after her house and tend her garden but one day, when she goes over the mountain to visit Strega Amelia, Big Anthony recites the magic verse over the pasta pot, with disastrous results.

In this retelling of an old tale, author-illustrator Tomie dePaola (whose middle names is Anthony) combines humor in the writing and warmth in the paintings as he builds the story to its hilarious climax. Read more

Review & Description

Even though Tank and Joey were friends now, they still had some issues. When Joey takes Tank to go fishing with his Uncle Mike, they run into all kinds of problems. First they are late, then the fish aren't biting, but even worse, there's a disappearing sailboat in the very shallow Saugus River! Legend had it, there was pirate treasure buried on Dungeon Rock. Three pirates were found, but the fourth--Thomas Veal--escaped and moved the treasure to his cave. Since the fish weren't biting, Joey decided treasure hunting would be more fun. Can the boys find the treasure, or will Veal cause them drama on Dungeon Rock? Read more

Review & Description

The creators of the New York Times best-selling Encyclopedia Prehistorica series offer a mythic look at the mysteries of the past with an entire pantheon of remarkable pop-ups.

For all of recorded history, humans have sought to understand Earth’s mysteries in the realm of the divine — and aspired to conduct themselves as heroes. Only gods, of course, could push the sun across the sky,forge entire continents, and impel mountains to touch the clouds. In this stunning volume, the incomparable team of Matthew Reinhart and Robert Sabuda take us to Ra-Atum’s land in Ancient Egypt; above the Grecian clouds to Zeus’s Mount Olympus; up to Norse god Odin’s frozen north; to the Far East, where the Jade Emperor sits in the heavens; into the wilds of Oceania, where Pele’s volcanic rage simmers below the earth; and to many more lands and times, all rich with sacred myths and legends.

Gonna Read to My BunnyScholastic and Weston Woods Studios are masters at turning best-selling children's books into quality videos, and now they've found a clever way to package them that's perfect for traveling. Today's antidote for long car drives or plane trips made even longer by the constant whining of the kids is the backseat or portable DVD player. Scholastic's travel kit, packed in a cardboard box with Velcro closure and a plastic carrying handle, includes two DVDs with a total of over two hours of read-along stories and songs, a 45-minute CD of fun songs, a box of four crayons, and a 34-page activity book. Popular children's stories included on the two Scholastic Storybook Treasures DVD collections include "There Was an Old Lady Who Swallowed a Fly," "Frog Went A-Courtin'," "Bugs! Bugs! Bugs!," "Dem Bones," and "Musical Max," and each story features faithfully animated artwork from the book and narration and/or songs performed by talented artists including Chrystal Taliefero, Woody Guthrie, Mae Robertson, and Cyndi Lauper. Each DVD features a nice mix of newer and older stories and fanciful and factual tales. The CD showcases some of the songs from the stories on the two DVDs, as well as a variety of songs from other Scholastic Storybook Treasures compilations, including "Chicka Chicka 1, 2, 3" sung by Chrystal Taliefero; "The Erie Canal" performed by "The Fab Three," Scotty Huff, Robert Reynolds, and Paul Deakin; and "Dinosaur Bones" with Raul Malo. Finally, the activity book features some packing and travel tips for parents, and everything from mazes, number tracing, and simple matching games to a host of pictures of famous characters like Strega Nona and Harry the Dirty Dog for the kids to color. Sure, parents could make their own kits like this from the Scholastic videos on their shelves, but kids will love a new selection of videos for the trip as well as the novelty of a special self-contained kit that's just for traveling.
