DUMB BUNNYLucille is having an Easter Egg Hunt at her rich expensive mansion! And guess what? The winner gets a play date to swim in Lucille's heated indoor swimming pool! Only, here is the problem. How did Junie B. get stuck wearing a big dumb bunny suit? And how can she possibly find eggs when she keeps tripping over her huge big rabbit feet? Being a dumb bunny is definitely not as easy as it looks. Will Junie B. end up with egg on her face? Or will the day deliver some very un"egg"spected results? TURKEYS WE HAVE LOVED AND EATEN (AND OTHER THANKFUL STUFF)Room One is getting ready for its family Thanksgiving feast. And whichever class comes up with the best Thankful List will win a blue ribbon and a pumpkin pie! Only what do you know? Being thankful for the right stuff is harder than it looks. Plus there are so many things that Junie B. is "not" thankful for. Like Tattletale May. And sweaty Pilgrim costumes. And disgusting "feast food" like squash and stewed onions. Does Room One stand a chance in a Thankful Contest? Or will its Thanksgiving feast turn into a Turkey Day disaster?

How could someone like Mick die? He was the kid who freaked out his mom by putting a ceramic eye in a defrosted chicken, the kid who did a wild dance in front of the whole school--and the kid who, if only he had worn his bicycle helmet, would still be alive today. But now Phoebe Harte's twelve-year-old brother is gone, and Phoebe's world has turned upside down. With her trademark candor and compassion, beloved middle-grade writer Barbara Park tells how Phoebe copes with her painful loss in this story filled with sadness, humor--and hope. Chosen by Publishers Weekly as one of their Best Books of 1996. "A full-fledged and fully convincing drama" (Publishers Weekly).
