A game of animal mimics begins as a child tries to copy different animal movements.
It's time to play let's pretend--and walk like the animals! Show how well you can mimic our friends in the wild, five different creatures are hiding behind the flaps, all surrounded by their natural environments. Who is waddling by the pond? Golden-yellow ducks are passing by a blue pond, ringed by lime-green frogs, a flowery garland, and a tropical sky. Who is nibbling at the leaves--well, only a giraffe that tall! Streeeeeetch that neck as far as you can. And right near the koalas, bouncing up and down, is a kangaroo with a little baby tucked tightly in her pouch. Hens peck in the yard, near smaller fuzzy chicks, and in the branches, not too far from a butterfly, a slithering snake unfolds and wraps itself around them. Children will have tons of fun twisting and stretching and bending their bodies--while they learn animal facts and names and enjoy reading! 10 pages (all in color), 7 3/8 x 7 3/8.

An anthology of five full-length romance novels set in the 1800s when Queen Victoria sat on the throne of England, and the rest of the western world emulated her demeanor in decorum, protocol, dress and the social graces--except for certain bold and resourceful women like those in these stories, who strayed from the fold to embrace such notions as shedding corsets and crinolines, and remaining free of a husband's control. At least that was their intention... Until love entered the picture. So slip back in time to a world of adventurous ladies who become entangled with irresistible rogues, and rugged frontiersmen, and notorious rakes, and go along with them on their bumpy rides to everlasting love. The five books included in the anthology are Colby's Child, Come Be my Love, Miss Phipps and the Cattle Baron, Perilous Pleasures and Her Master's Touch.

The Warrior Queen is a subversive, funny novel about modern middle-class marriage. Kate Wildburn is in trouble. She is an extrovert, a lateral thinker and a talented pianist. She is also a good wife and mother, and an attractive woman who enjoys being a woman. Richard, her surgeon husband, is balding, aggressive, hard on his children – and is he having an affair? The Warrior Queen is a subversive look at modern middle-class marriage, a guerrilla war of the sexes fought in well-heeled Auckland among the trendy homes and chic cafes of Remmers and Parnell. With her fine ear for male bluster and female bitchiness, and her subtle observations of family life, Barbara Else has created an elegant black comedy to entertain – and warn – readers from either of the warring camps.

Its name derived from the Nez Perce language, Latah County is the only county in the United States to have been created by an Act of Congress. The abundance of its natural resourcesfrom blue fields of camas to deep veins of gold, from great stands of white pine trees to vast green grasslandsattracted a diversity of dreamers seeking only the opportunity to build their own futures. Nestled in the heart of the Palouse, an agricultural area of extraordinary production, Latah County is a land of timber and, at Potlatch, was once the site of one of the largest sawmills in the world. At Moscow, it is also the home of the states land-grant institution, the University of Idaho. From the forests of Troy and the ridges of Juliaetta and Kendrick, from the homesteads of Genesee to Bovills hunting lodge and Dearys town site, Latah County has had a rich and varied history.
