Stray cat Nin drifts from house to house until he meets a meteorologist named Mark. Then Nin begins his greatest journey yet-to the top of Mount Washington. Follow Nin to a land where the wind howls, snow swirls and wild bears roam. At the Mount Washington Observatory, Nin learns that the best friends—and a wonderful home—can be found anywhere, even high above the clouds. A true story, originally published by The History Press in 2009, reprinted in a new edition by Arcadia Publishing in 2017.

Cat in the Clouds

Thomas wants to build the biggest and best snowman ever. Since he can't do it alone, he'll need a helping hand--or a paw. But little bears love to hibernate. How do you wake up a snoozing bear? By tickling it? Singing to it? Maybe making its favorite snack?A sequel to the Ladybug Award nominee How to Share with a Bear, How to Build a Snow Bear is a story about two siblings sharing a wondrous wintry day.

How to Build a Snow Bear

Pinder's playful verse will have readers bouncing along with each dino step as Rodrigo the Ankylosaurus and his prehistoric pals learn about their natural world and count from one to ten. With adorable illustrations and plenty to search for, kids will discover new things on each read-through, and informative back matter will provide curious readers with even more information on their favorite dinosaurs.

Counting Dinos

Getting to used to big changes can be hard when you're young, whether the change is a new school, a new home, or just moving from a comfortable cozy crib to a big new bed. When Brody and his dragon pal Horst can't fall asleep in their strange new room, they go in search of the perfect place to sleep. Is it a squirrel's nest? A cloud? A gently rocking rowboat on a pond? Young readers will enjoy floating along with Brody and Horst in this friendly adventure with all the makings of a bedtime classic. (Winner of the 2019 New Hampshire Literary Award for Outstanding Work of Children's Literature.)

The Perfect Pillow

The perfect thing to do on a chilly day is to make a blanket cave. But a comfy cave never stays empty for too long. What can Thomas do when a bear takes over his cave? Try to distract him with a trail of blueberries? Some honey? A nice long back scratch?How to Share with a Bear is a story about how although it's not always easy, sharing with a sibling can make things even more fun!

How to Share with a Bear

If all the animals came inside, bears would run down the stairs, kangaroos would bounce on the couch, and hippos would play hide-and-seek through the halls! Join one family's wild romp as animals of all shapes and sizes burst through the front door and make themselves right at home. A Ladybug Picture Book Award nominee.
