A counting book like no other, from Sandra Boynton!

The amazing Bob! The amazing Boynton! Because who else but Sandra Boynton could imagine 15 Bobs in one book? Actually, that's 14 Bobs, and one Simon James Alexander Ragsdale the Third (he's a turtle), which gives Fifteen Animals! the added dimension of being a unique counting book--count the Bobs, count the pets, count the bunnies, count the fish. Fifteen Animals! also comes with a free song available via download. It's all the energy and appeal of Boynton: the lively language, distinctive illustrations, and inimitable characters. And music. And counting. And, for the first time, a person character, an earnest little boy who loves animals and happily sings:



I really like animals,

I like them a lot.

Fifteen animals is what I've got.

I've got fifteen animals.

They're friendly and tame, and

I've given each one a special name.



Make that Bob.

 'The moose plays the cello. The deer, violin. And it's ONE-two-three, ONE-two-three, time to begin!' Destined to be a read-aloud favourite, Woodland Danceis the newest board book from Sandra Boynton - a mystical, waltzing night-time counterpart to the upbeat, broad-daylight Barnyard Dance, the Boynton classic with over 4.7 million copies sold.

 

With a mesmerising rhythm and rich forest colours, Woodland Dance unfolds: by the light of the moon, a lone fox on a mountaintop gives her bugle a long, steady blow - summoning hedgehogs and frogs, raccoons and ducks, bears and moose, beavers and squirrels. Then, in a moonlit glade, in pairs and in families, they dance all night long to the music of The Woodland Dance Trio (boar flute, deer violin, moose cello.) And as dawn breaks, the animals wander off to bed as the Trio plays one last piece to welcome the sun. Such tenderness! Such a magical book to share with a magical child!

Did you ever see noses so wonderfully round? Where else could these curly tails be found?

Piggies rock! So does Boynton. Through her eyes, her words, her music, and above all her art, we see the world with whimsy and pleasure, appreciating round noses and curly tails, floppy ears and pleasing plumpness. And we're lucky to give that gift to our youngest children.



A member of the amazing Boynton on Board series that has over 21 million copies in print, Perfect Piggies! also comes with a free downloadable song. Reminiscent of a cappella swing, it's a celebration of the homey--of beauty in the eye of the beholder, of sunshine and fresh air, and a place to put up our hooves when the day is done. And, of course, the catching energy and rhythmic language of a beloved original:



We are all perfect piggies and we know what we need. It's really very simple, very simple indeed: a troughful of food, a place in the sun, and a little bit of comfort when the day is done.



That goes for the rest of us, too.
