The Pig Behind The Door

Pages : 37
Book Description
A few years ago, I received a gift of a three-foot ceramic pig and wondered, what do I do with it? After some discussion, my husband and I went and purchased and old antique door and window and hung them under one of the huge cedar trees in our yard. In front we made a stoop, planted flowers etc. and suddenly, a cottage in the trees! We placed a table and chairs behind the door, set the table with flowers and tea and last but not least, placed the three-foot pig behind the door. Hence the pig behind the door was born. The Pig Behind the Door is a collection of whimsical and sometimes humorous poems about the magic I see in my garden. It's about imagining.

A House for Every Bird
Author: Megan Maynor
Publisher: Knopf Books for Young Readers

Category : Juvenile Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
A young artist's drawings rebel against her when she tries to put her sketched birds in houses that match how they look, but not how they feel in this hilarious picture book perfect for readers of Julian is a Mermaid and The Big Orange Splot. A young artist has drawn birds and bird houses in corresponding colors. Now it's time to match them up. The blue bird goes in the blue house, the orange bird in the orange house, and so on. But wait! The birds don't agree with the narrator's choices and, much to her distress, are rebelling by swapping houses. Can the narrator make the birds see sense? Or is it possible that you just can't tell a bird by its feathers? "This bighearted picture book delivers a worthwhile message with humor and great respect for young readers."--The Horn Book "A fresh and funny take on an old moral."--Kirkus "Both Maynor’s dialogue text and Juanita’s digital art have a loose, improvisational feel that captures the thrill and frustration of a work in progress—and the value of empathy and flexibility in getting to know others."--Publishers Weekly "Use this to open a discussion on using words rather than assumptions, or as an introduction to the way art can go in unexpected directions."--The Bulletin
