I know that when fans read in Paste Oct '06 that The Decemberists' Colin Meloy and Carson Ellis would put out a children's book "about a talking cat who lives in turn-of-the-century Butte, Montana," many people stopped uploading greenscreen...  

If you are looking for a good gift for a tween, I recommend The Magician's Elephant by Kate DiCamillo. There is a reason that Kate DiCamillo has won a Newbery Medal and other honors for her stories. She is a gifted writer. Her new book, The Magician's Elephant, is a gem. Unlike her novel Because of Winn-Dixie in which the voice and development of the main character is paramount, in The Magician's Elephant, it is the story itself that takes...

I had no idea that L. Frank Baum, author of The Wonderful Wizard of Oz had ever written a Christmas story. I first picked up the picture book The Life and Adventures of Santa Claus because of the wonderful portrait of Santa Claus on the cover. I was startled to find out the the author of the story was L. Frank Baum. He wrote the story in 1902. Now this very entertaining tale is a picture book with dramatic illustrations by Charles Santore...  

The Scallop Christmas by Jane Freeberg is a refreshing Christmas book. While it captures the spirit of Christmas, it also tells a rich story of family life over a period of months. The Scallop Christmas is a nostalgic tale of a very special gift - not the special Christmas present itself but the love it symbolizes. Set in a Maine coastal village during the Depression, the story provides a glimpse into the past with its description of scallop...  

The cover doesn't really give you an idea of the amazing pop-up sculptures in How Many: Spectacular Paper Sculptures, so I have included a shot of one of the paper sculptures for you in my review of How Many. The book would make an excellent gift for a family with children six and older as would the books on my Christmas Pop-up Books list. Do your kids like pop-up books? Why or why not?

I can't say I have ever thought of Hanukkah and the poetic form haiku together, but in the case of the children's Hanukkah book Hanukkah Haiku, the combination works well. Hanukkah Haiku is one of the most joyous picture books about Hanukkah that I have ever seen. With a combination of poetry by Harriet Ziefert, exuberant paintings by Karla Gudeon, and a unique design, Hanukkah Haiku is the story of one family's celebration of Hanukkah rituals...

Like many families, we start our Christmas decorating after Thanksgiving. This year, I again plan to use a very special children's Christmas book as one of my table decorations. It's The First Noel, a pop-up book by Jan Pietnkowski, a master of artistry and paper engineering. When you untie the red bow holding the book closed and open the book so wide you can tie the front and back covers to one another, the result is a beautiful carousel...  

With winter storms swirling around the country, now's a good time to snuggle up indoors and enjoy children's books about winter and snow. The children's picture book Katy and the Big Snow is a classic. It has delighted several generations of young children in our family. The story of Katy, a big red crawler tractor who saves the day when a huge snowstorm hits the city, was first published in 1943. Virgina Lee Burton, the award-winning author...
