A fantastically funny story about a hungry bear who awakes from his hibernation with a bad case of the grumps. Horace is usually a happy, easy-going bear. But one spring, he wakes from his long sleep in a very bad mood - he's hangry! When the other animals in the forest generously share their food, he gobbles it all up and they then find themselves with growling bellies. Horace's grumpiness soon starts to spread . . . until the whole forest is squabbling! Can a wise baby squirrel help Horace to see the chaos he's caused? With bright and vibrant artwork, this is a funny story about snacks, sharing and learning to think of others.

An empowering tale about believing in yourself no matter how small you may feel.
A humorous yet touching retelling of The Lion and the Mouse that reminds young readers of the importance of friendship. Sharky McShark is the meanest, most fearsome creature in the ocean. When she's around, the clownfish clear out, the flatfish flee, and even the rocks get out of her way. As the biggest bully in the sea, Sharky doesn't think she needs friends. But then one day--with a plink plank plonk --a tiny crab tumbles into her world and proves that everyone, even the scariest underwater bully, needs a friend. This fun-filled undersea story, based on Aesop's classic fable, explores bullying, friendship, and the true meaning of courage.

A timely retelling plays off "The Little Red Hen" with an environmental slant. On top of a hill, inside an old and very fruitful apple tree, lives Little Green Hen. She prunes the tree's branches, rids it of pests, and sows its seeds so that more trees will grow. But soon the work proves too much, and Little Green Hen seeks some help. Dog (who loves sticks), Sparrow (who loves bugs), and Squirrel (who loves burying things) are glad to pitch in. But Peacock, Fox, and Cat have far more important things to do -- until the storms roll in, the rain comes down, and the waters rise. . . . With contemporary flair, Alison Murray offers another engaging adaptation of a traditional children's tale.

And when he's born, no one seems to notice that he's actually a dinosaur Mama Duck knows that there is plenty of room for difference in a loving family, but there's one big problem: How will Dino Duckling fly south for the winter without any wings? Can Dino Duckling ever truly belong? Alison Murray's heartwarming reinvention of a classic is perfect for anyone who has ever wondered how to fit in. Don't miss Sharky McShark, also by Alison Murray

Alison Murray offers an enchanting retelling of a much-loved Aesop's fable with a mischievous twist. Hare (Leapus swifticus) can barely stay still for a minute. He's the fastest on the farm. Tortoise (Slow and steadicus) can stay still for a very long time. She has occasionally been mistaken for a rock. So when they decide to have a race, Hare is certain to win . . . isn't he? Through the meadow, around the duck pond, and straight into the carrot field. Carrots? Oh, dear. Whether encountering the classic tale for the first time or tracing the racecourse map to relive it, children will be quick to realize Hare's folly and eager to join the cheering for easygoing, persistent Tortoise. She may be slow, but watch her go
