This delightful collection prepares you for lift-off as you
enter a world where children fly high and cats sail through the air. Turn these
pages and let your imagination take flight!
The ball is simply buzzing! The music is humming. Six-legged dancers
are twirling. When suddenly...
eeeeeeeegadd! Enormous feet are about to stomp on the whole affair! Can
a dapper mosquito dressed in a tuxedo avert disaster?
Old Cricket

Atheneum/Simon & Schuster 2003, Ages 3-7
“This team responsible for Sailor Moo returns with a homespun trickster tale enhanced by sprightly humor and ace draftsmanship... smartly paced and skillfully drawn, this tale delivers a gentle comeuppance sure to please smart young bugs.”

Sailor Moo: Cow at Sea
By Lisa Wheeler
A Richard Jackson Book
Atheneum/Simon & Schuster 2002, Ages 4-8
“Goembel’s dusky acrylics introduce a cast of bipedal critters who teeter wildly between anthropomorphism and realism, upping the humor considerably. The goggle-sporting manatees and hook-handed cat captain Silver Claw will likely have readers giggling.”
— Publishers Weekly
“Hi, Pizza Man!”
By Virginia Walter
Orchard Books/Scholastic 1995, Ages 4-8
“In this simple, funny story, a young girl pretends what she would say to a variety of creatures, from a dinosaur to a snake, delivering pizza to her door.”
— School Library Journal
