When the sun goes down, the Saguaro cacti secretly begin to dance. Hip-Hop Harry, Boppin' Betty, and Tappin' Tooty come to life as they dance in the middle of the night. When the sun comes up, they have to freeze so people won't see them. And sometimes, when they stop dancing, their arms end up in the wrong place. Written and illustrated by Dawn Martin using watercolor, the characters were derived from real people close to the family. The song in the book was derived from her grandmother's cheerleading song (1906 Lone Star School, Kansas). Stay tuned for The Policeman and The Pie, which combines true stories from the author's father and father-in-law.

A wasp is drawn to a colony of bees, and discovers a sting in the tail. This is a story about both the stronghold of incorrect belief and the power of identification within community. This is the sixth of The Animal Parables series. Each tale features an animal who finds that things turn out to be quite different from how it imagined, and profound life lessons are learned along the way. These seven life-affirming tales will delight young minds and leave adults moved to reflection. In this collection, Martin Day has re-discovered the power of the parable to layer deeper meanings under the skin of a simple narrative. In doing so, he has created a collection of stories that sound at multiple levels. It’s like the delight of finding that second tray under the first in a box of chocolates!
