Pop-Up The Night Before Christmas - 1973 Random House

Jed Baker

EUC - pages are clean with no marks or tears. One page (pictured) has started to pull away from the metal rings of the binding - its the only one.

This book uses photographs of students engaging in a variety of real-life social situations. The realistic format plays to the visual strengths of children with ASD to teach appropriate social behaviors. Color photographs illustrate the “right way” and “wrong way” to approach each situation—and the positive/negative consequences of each. An adult then explains each situation, asking questions such as, “What is happening here?“ Children can role-play skills until they are confident enough to practice them in real life interactions.

Kenda Henthorn

Brand New and unread


Get ready to tap your way to sleep with Baa, Baa Tap Sheep by Kenda Henthorn, a delightful picture book perfect for children ages 2-12. Join the playful sheep as they explore the world of nursery rhymes, bedtime, dreams, imagination, and play. This 32-page book published by Sleeping Bear Press in 2022 comes in a sturdy 10-inch length and width, with a weight of 14.4 oz and a height of 0.2 in.

As a trio of tired tots settles into bed for the night, the sheep who should be helping them count down to slumber kick up their hooves instead in an energetic dance performance. Starting with one little lamb and counting up to 10, these "sleep" sheep tap, waltz, tango, and even boogie as they get their nighttime groove on. But finally, after their energy is danced out, nap sheep lull everyone to sleep.

The Schoolchild's Pocket Book

"Sticks and stones may break my bones, but names will never hurt me." That's what children chant when they are being teased; it's what their parents chanted, and probably their grandparents before them. Collected in this invaluable book are the wit and wisdom of generations of schoolchildren—more than 170 selections ranging from insults and riddles to jeers and jump-rope rhymes. With Iona Opie's introduction and detailed notes and Maurice Sendak's remarkable pictures—vignettes, sequences, and full-page paintings both wickedly funny and comically sad—it offers knowledge and entertainment to all who open it.

EUC - almost like new, the back has an indention mark (maybe from someone writing on top of it? Pictured).

Artistry and super-heroics collide ain this new superhero story!

Thirteen-year-old Ashley Rayburn is an upbeat girl with a decidedly downbeat past. With a father in prison, Ashley has bounced from foster home to foster home and represents a real challenge to the social workers who try to help her--not because she's inherently bad, but because trouble always seems to find her.

Things start looking up for Ashley when she finds new, loving parents, a best friend, and an outlet for her creative skills. But her life quickly gets more complicated when she also finds a suitcase full of specially enhanced body paints, changing her from artist to the world's newest superhero. It's the greatest thing to happen in her life so far, until Ashley finds herself pursued by a government agency that wants those paints back! Now she has to make hard choices to protect her new parents and learn what it truly means to be a family.

From writers Jennifer Muro (Star Wars: Forces of Destiny) and Thomas Krajewski (Netflix's Buddy Thunderstruck) and artist Gretel Lusky comes a brand-new superhero for the DC Universe in a story that is alternately fun, dramatic, emotional, and uplifting.

ARIOL #6: A NASTY CAT is the 6th volume of stories featuring the young anthropomorphic donkey, Ariol. The Nasty Cat in the title refers to one of Ariol’s nemesis, a cat named Timberwolf. Timberwolf is a bully, but he really doesn’t appear in these stories all that much. The stories in this collection are:

“The Race” – during P.E. at school, Ariol’s class takes place in a running some laps. It isn’t a race, but Ariol pretends it is and tries to finish first.

“Foundation” – Ariol wants to look more like his idol, Superhorse. So, he puts his ears back and uses some of his Mom’s foundation to paint his face. Unfortunately, he can’t get it off.

“Snow Day” – It snows one day. Ariol’s dad can’t get his car started so Ariol and his friend, Ramono, walk to school.

“Petula! Petula!” – Ariol hears a song on the radio with the name “Petula” in the title. Petula is the little cow Ariol has a crush on. So, he decides he is going to find out the name of the song and buy the cd to give to Petula.

“A Surprise” – Ariol’s birthday is coming up and he wants to do something different this year.

“Truth or Dare” – on a bus ride for a field trip, Ariol and Ramono sit next to Petula and Mothbella. Petula and Mothbella start playing truth or dare and Ariol hopes that he will be asked to join in the game.

“One to Zero” – Ramono spends the night at Ariol’s. They plan to get Ariol’s parents to let them stay up to watch the soccer game. That doesn’t happen, so they have to hatch a new plan.

“Aquasplash” – Ariol and his dad spend the day at the water park.

“Mrs. Sapolin’s Pies” – Ariol and Ramono go with Ariol’s grandmother to bake pies at Mrs. Sapolin’s house. While there, they meet Mr. Sapolin.

“Don Olio and his Rhythms” – While at the bizarre selling pies for Mrs. Sapolin, Ariol gets to meet some musicians and sing on stage.

“Vote for Ariol” – Ariol decides to run for class president so he can get closer to Petula. But things don’t go as planned.

“The Election” – It’s the class election day. Will Ariol win the election or will he find a way out of it?

Such an amazing book. The top corners are a tad dented (pictured) and there is a *little* bit of marking on the final Z page (pictured) and the top right back corner (pictured).

Using the same innovative production technique and brilliant aesthetic cheered by parents, educators, and children alike in the acclaimed TouchThinkLearn series, here is an alphabet that literally adds a new dimension to learning. Raised die-cut pieces nestled in shaped board cut-outs engage readers on both visual and tactile levels. An impressive gift, an exquisitely executed design object, but most of all, this is a fabulously fun



Delightfully simple and ingeniously tactile, TouchThinkLearn: ABC speaks to what Chronicle does best: celebrating the physicality of the printed book. The practicality and uniqueness of its approach will not only stand out in the market but redefine how we think of a quality early concept board book. We've proved it by selling the series so well.



A larger than life TouchThinkLearn alphabet book-unlike any other! To touch is to experience; to experience is to learn.
