Skunk and Badger''s unusual friendship continues in this delightful series written by Newbery Honor author Amy Timberlake, and illustrated by Caldecott Medalist Jon Klassen, which contains the best elements of classics such as Frog and Toad and Winnie-the-Pooh. Skunk and Badger have an easy roommate rhythm - Skunk cooks! Badger cleans! - when they take in two orphaned rat pups, Zeno and Zephyr. Badger is working on an Important Rock Work article for Rock Hound Weekly and needs focus, focus, focus to write it. But how much trouble could two tiny rats really be? Some scheduling, a few strategically placed naps, and all will be well! But it''s winter, and nothing goes to plan. Hibernation threatens every routine. Articles refuse to write themselves. And rats in the rock room? It will take a North Twist village to raise these rats! Featuring cosy drawings and full-colour pictures by bestselling artist Jon Klassen, Amy Timberlake''s delightfully off-kilter adventure explores the complexity of friendship and the meaning of family in a wintery world where chickens wear parkas and Yard Sheep host spaghetti dinners. And wait! Is that a dinosaur? PRAISE FOR THE SKUNK AND BADGER SERIES ''This book was so funny! It made me and my dad laugh so hard.

"Un poisson a volé un chapeau. Peut-être qu''il s''en tirera bien. Peut-être."--

Od chvíle, kdy Petr zachránil Paxe jako malé lišče, z nich byli nerozluční přátelé. Jednoho dne se však stane nepředstavitelné: Petrův otec vstoupí do armády a přinutí ho vrátit lišáka do volné přírody. V dědečkově domě, pět set kilometrů od domova, si Petr uvědomí, že není tam, kde má být – s Paxem. A tak se, poháněný láskou, věrností a žalem, vydává navzdory blížící se válce na dalekou cestu, aby se se svým přítelem opět shledal. Ani Paxovi se však nevyhnou nebezpečná dobrodružství.

Este pez pequeñito tiene un sombrero que no le pertenece. ¡Se lo robó a un pez grande! El sombrero es azul y muy bonito, le queda muy bien. Y además, el pez grande no vio cómo lo robaba. Seguramente, aunque lo hubiera visto, no se imagina dónde se va a esconder. Nunca lo encontrará. ¿O sí?----When a tiny fish shoots into view wearing a round blue topper (which happens to fit him perfectly), trouble could be following close behind. So it''s a good thing that enormous fish won''t wake up. And even if he does, it''s not like he''ll ever know what happened. . . . Visual humor swims to the fore as the best-selling Jon Klassen follows his breakout debut with another deadpan-funny tale. From acclaimed author Jon Klassen, This is Not My Hat finally in Spanish as El ladrón del sombrero.

Roommates Skunk and Badger head out on a rock-finding expedition that becomes much more dangerous than they ever expected in this second book of the odd-couple series that has been compared to Wallace and Gromit and Winnie-the-Pooh. Newbery Honor author Amy Timberlake has created an instant classic with illustrations by Caldecott Medalist Jon Klassen (I Want My Hat Back, Pax). Buried in the heart of every animal is a secret treasure. For rock scientist Badger, it''s the Spider Eye Agate he found as a cub, stolen years ago by his crafty cousin, Fisher. For Badger''s roommate, Skunk, the treasure is Sundays with the New Yak Times Book Review. When an old acquaintance, Mr. G. Hedgehog, announces his plan to come for the Book Review as soon as it thumps on the doorstep, Skunk decides an adventure will solve Badger''s problems as well as his own. Surprisingly, Badger agrees. Together they set off on an agate-finding expedition at Badger''s favourite spot on Endless Lake. But all is not as it seems at Campsite #5. Fisher appears unexpectedly. Then a chicken arrives who seems intent on staying. Something is up! Indeed! Secrets, betrayals, lies … and a luminous, late-Jurassic prize. In a volume that includes full-colour plates and additional black-and-white illustrations by Caldecott medalist Jon Klassen, Newbery Honor author Amy Timberlake takes readers on a second adventure in the new series reviewers have called an instant classic, with comparisons to Frog and Toad, Winnie-the-Pooh, and The Wind in the Willows.

"Un ours a perdu son chapeau. Et s''il ne le retrouvait jamais? MAIS ... UNE MINUTE! Il l''a bien vu, son chapeau ..."--

From Caldecott Medalist Jon Klassen comes the first board book in the Your Things series for the youngest of children. This is your truck. It is yours to have. Your truck is red, but it could be other colors too. It can carry things around, like a chair and table, a dog, or a horse. It will wait for you until you tell it to go, then it will go wherever you want, as far as you want, whenever you want. At the end of the day it will sleep, and you can sleep, too. Jon Klassen brings his minimalist''s touch to a soothing story of a simple object that a child can command and befriend, one that is there whenever the child chooses to visit it. Building on the quiet but evocative world he created in Your Farm, Your Forest, and Your Island, Jon Klassen invites young children to consider more things that are theirs and theirs alone, reinforcing that they have a right to things like solitude, exploration, and companionship.

From the incomparable Jon Klassen, one in a trio of companion board books for the youngest of children This is your sun. It is coming up for you. This is your tree. It can go under the sun. With a minimal tableau of familiar objects and a gentle rhythm suited for reading aloud, a farm and all its items--a horse and its hay, a truck, a stool, a fence--are assembled, ending with bedtime as the sun goes down. This is a farm for a young child to have whenever they want to go there. One in a trio of board books focusing on safe spaces, comfort, and imagination, Your Farm signals both a departure for Jon Klassen and a story whose peculiar touches of whimsy stamp the book as iconically his.
