Book Description
"A reminder that sometimes, there is a good reason to break the rules. . . .This winsome pairing of text and illustration is a natural for storytime." -- SCHOOL LIBRARY JOURNAL (starred review) (Ages 4-7) Miss Merriweather, the head librarian, is very particular about rules in the library. No running allowed. And you must be quiet. But when a lion comes to the library one day, no one is sure what to do. There aren't any rules about lions in the library. And, as it turns out, this lion seems very well suited to library visiting. His big feet are quiet on the library floor. He makes a comfy backrest for the children at story hour. And he never roars in the library, at least not anymore. But when something terrible happens, the lion quickly comes to the rescue in the only way he knows how. Michelle Knudsen's disarming story, illustrated by the matchless Kevin Hawkes in an expressive timeless style, will win over even the most ardent of rule keepers.

Book Description
Who knew rulers could be so much fun? Little kids do, though they don't always have a firm grasp of how to use their rulers. Along comes How Big Is the Pig?, the perfect introduction to this preschool and early elementary school concept, which invites kids to measure the flocked images with a wooden ruler that is attached to the book by a colorful ribbon. Whether it's a happy pig dancing a jig, a crocodile who naps a while, or a tiny mouse inside her house, the rhyming text gently encourages kids to try their hands at measuring-and an answer key in the back of the book (plus tips on how to measure)--helps them see if they got it all right. The ruler comes housed inside a pocket sleeve that is clearly visible through a window in the cover, and uses both inches and metric units.

Inside
Author: Michael G. Santos
Publisher: Macmillan + ORM
ISBN: 1429908548
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 239
Book Description
American jails and prisons confine nearly 13.5 million people each year, and it is estimated that 6 to 7 percent of the U.S. population will be confined in their lifetimes. Despite these disturbing numbers, little is known about life inside beyond the mythology of popular culture. Michael G. Santos, a federal prisoner nearing the end of his second decade of continuous confinement, has dedicated the last eighteen years to shedding light on the lives of the men warehoused in the American prison system. Inside:Life Behind Bars in America, his first book for the general public, takes us behind those bars and into the chaos of the cellblock. Capturing the voices of his fellow prisoners with perfect pitch, Santos makes the tragic--- and at times inspiring---stories of men from the toughest gang leaders to the richest Wall Street criminals come alive. From drug schemes, murders for hire, and even a prostitution ring that trades on the flesh of female prison guards, this book contains the never-before-seen details of prison life that at last illuminate the varied ways in which men experience life behind bars in America.
