Geometry Genius features fun geometric characters, like Fox and Lion, and lift-the-flap activities that help kids relate shapes to everyday life. Characters pose key questions, such as What's special about a sphere?, What is an equilateral triangle?, and How many lines of symmetry does a hexagon have? Children can then lift the flaps and find the answers. An interactive pop-up will also bring learning to life by encouraging kids to spot different shapes within the scene.

Geometry Genius helps kids identify and describe 2-D and 3-D shapes, compare and contrast features of regular and irregular shapes, discuss the size and orientation of shapes, understand nets, identify and count lines of symmetry, and more! It gets kids thinking about shapes in their world and not just on the pages of a math book. Quiz questions and fun activities are found sprinkled throughout the book, encouraging kids to lift the flaps and find out more. Learning shapes is a highly visual topic, and this book tackles the subject in a visually appealing, fully interactive, and playful way.

This delightful book--one of Amazon's 2019 Holiday Gift Picks and Most Anticipated Books--is designed to start conversations with kids about generosity. In the tradition of Goodnight Gorilla, the words are intentionally spare. The book is meant to be read interactively, with adults posing questions so kids can guess what's happening (and why). Praised by both parents and teachers for sparking imagination and eliciting discussion, the story can be interpreted differently in every family, by every child, and reinterpreted many times over.

Give the gift of this clever, earnest book about generosity--a new and nourishing fable for every child's library (and one that includes a delightfully innovative cover approach that requires the reader to unfasten the Velcroed cover for a fun unboxing effect!). It's a gift that keeps on giving.

This is the fourth book in the internationally acclaimed Moneybunny Books series that also includes Earn It!, Spend It!, and Save It!

A bad day can turn into a good one! Caldecott Medalist Kevin Henkes's masterful picture book explores a single day from five different points of view.

It's a bad day for a little yellow bird who loses his favorite tail feather, a little white dog whose leash gets tangled, a little orange fox who can't find his mother, and a little brown squirrel who drops her nut. But then something good happens to each of them, turning a bad day into a good one. This sturdy board book edition is perfect for snuggling up.

What makes a good day? What makes a bad day? And how can bad be transformed into good?

This exploration of opposites and emotions was described as a deceptively simple picture book, expertly tuned to the emotions and imaginations of young children by ALA Booklist in a starred review.

Change and transitions are hard, but Goodbye, Friend! Hello, Friend! demonstrates how, when one experience ends, it opens the door for another to begin. It follows two best friends as they say goodbye to snowmen, and hello to stomping in puddles. They say goodbye to long walks, butterflies, and the sun...and hello to long evening talks, fireflies, and the stars. But the hardest goodbye of all comes when one of the friends has to move away. Feeling alone isn't easy, and sometimes new beginnings take time. But even the hardest days come to an end, and you never know what tomorrow will bring.
