by Géraldine ColletAn honest and clever picture book that illustrates how devaluing and mocking others will land you in a whole load of POOP. In the savanna the animals all live in harmony.

The elephant, the ostrich, and the monkeys all mock and ridicule him. Since the dung beetle is intelligent and cautious, he does not reply to their taunts. His only advocate, the fly, defends him and urges him to take action and talk to the king. But what a disappointment there too; instead of supporting him, the lion agrees with the others and then chases him away with a roar. The dung beetle is then faced with a big decision that is destined to change the savanna itself! The smart and humble dung beetle teaches the importance of everyone's role and the job they play. Parents and young readers alike will be hooked first by the title and second by the hero of the story, an underappreciated dung beetle. Join this little dung beetle as he leaves this corner of the savanna for a new place where his kindness and bravery are saluted, and find out what happens to the kingdom he leaves behind.

The King's Stilts (Classic Seuss)
by Dr. SeussDr. Seuss's classic treatise on the importance of a balanced life! A Seussian spin on a conventional fairy tale, The King's Stilts is as topical today as when it was first published in 1939. It's the story of a devoted king who works hard and plays hard—and whose entire kingdom is threatened when his beloved stilts are stolen and he is too distraught to do his job. Written in prose instead of rhyme (unlike Seuss's later works), The King's Stilts nevertheless addresses subjects that we know Dr. Seuss was passionate about throughout his life: duty (as in Horton Hears a Who and Horton Hatches the Egg); the abuse of power (as in The 500 Hats of Bartholomew Cubbins and Yertle the Turtle); deceit (as in The Bippolo Seed and How the Grinch Stole Christmas)--and even cats (as in The Cat in the Hat and I Can Lick 30 Tigers Today)! Follow the Good Doctor's advice: After a hard day of work, have fun with a great book like The King's Stilts!

But at five o'clock in the afternoon, the workday ends and it's time to play . . . and in the case of King Birtram, that means racing around town on a pair of red stilts! But sour old Lord Droon doesn't think that this kind of fun is befitting Binn's king, and he steals the beloved stilts. Missing the stilts, King Birtram cannot have fun. In his sadness, the king doesn't notice that Binn is in danger: the Dike Trees that hold back the sea are being destroyed by the evil Nizzards. Can young Eric the page boy outsmart the dreary Droon and save the day?This Read & Listen edition contains audio narration.
