Pinkerton, Behave! by Steven Kellogg Pdf

Pinkerton doesn't understand his owner’s commands. When told to come, he jumps out the window. When asked to fetch, he destroys the slippers instead. Pinkerton’s desperate owners take him to obedience school, but he flunks out in record time. Then one night a burglar breaks into their house, and Pinkerton is able to put his bad habits to good use. This silly charmer of a story was included on the Booklist and Horn Book best of the year lists and inspired four sequels about the impossibly clueless but irresistibly sweet Pinkerton. Now, in honor of its 35th anniversary, Steven Kellogg has updated the art and text (most notably removing the gun that appeared in the original edition), and has written an introductory note about the book’s history.

Pinkerton and Friends by Steven Kellogg Pdf

For more than thirty years, Steven Kellogg has been delighting young readers with his bright, lively books full of feisty imagination and silliness --and always perfectly expressing children's thoughts and dreams. As his friend Helen Hunt says in her introduction to this treasury, Steven's books "give voice and bring humor to the mischievous in all of us." Because of that, Steven Kellogg has become one of our most loved picture book creators. For the first time, here is a treasury of Steven's books, including many of his bestsellers (The Mysterious Tadpole, The Island of the Skog, Jimmy's Boa, Best Friends and others) and several little-known books that have been unavailable for many years. In all, eleven books are included--eleven gems to pore over again and again. And as an added bonus, there is also a biographical profile of Steven, complete with many photos and even some never-before-seen sketches. This is a compendium for every child--those who already love Steven Kellogg's books, and those who are soon to love them.

Snowflakes Fall by Patricia Maclachlan Pdf

In Snowflakes Fall, Newbery Medalist Patricia MacLachlan and award-winning artist Steven Kellogg portray life’s natural cycle: its beauty, its joy, and its sorrow. Together, the words and pictures offer the promise of renewal that can be found in our lives—snowflakes fall, and return again as raindrops so that flowers can grow. MacLachlan and Kellogg, who are longtime friends, were moved to collaborate on a message of hope for children and their families following the tragic events in Sandy Hook, Connecticut, on December 14, 2012. Kellogg lived in Sandy Hook for thirty-five years—he raised his family there and was an active member of the community. With Snowflakes Fall, they have created a truly inspiring picture book that is both a celebration of life and a tribute to the qualities that make each individual unique. In honor of the community of Sandy Hook and Newtown, Random House, the publisher of Snowflakes Fall, has made a donation to the Sandy Hook School Support Fund. Random House is also donating 25,000 new books to the national literacy organization First Book in the community’s honor and in support of children everywhere.
