The Crocodile and the Scorpion

When Chicken Little is bonked on the head by an acorn, the not-too-bright bird assumes that the sky is falling and so begins his journey. Along the way, he is joined by other equally clueless birds all of which are nearly eaten by a wily fox. Bold, colorful, abstract illustrations augment the humor in this simple retelling.

Colorful mice are shown skating when the outline of a cat appears on the ice. The cat with a hat winds up joining the skating party.  Limited vocabulary is enhanced by vibrant illustrations that together create mild tension to move the tale to its sunny conclusion.

Sturdy pages introduce young readers to familiar ideas and objects in Spanish and English. From colors to shapes and things that go, this colorful book will introduce readers to vocabulary in two languages.

This rhyming take-off on a well-known folksong is sure to delight listeners and readers of all ages. Lively rhymes use wonderful words and combine with eye-popping illustrations to present a catchy tale. Don’t know the tune? Don’t worry — the song is available to download from the publisher’s website.
