Books with author E.B. Greenwood

This is a wonderful story about a world different from ours in couple fun ways. First, the characters are cute bugs and second, the mistakes, or bad choices, made by the main character can be reversed. In this way he learns from his mistakes. There is one catch though, others affected by the choice have to agree... your choices affect others you see. It is written in rhyme and is an easy read for most children 7 to 9, a challenge for early readers, and fun for all to hear. The pictures are great as well. A good lesson book where your child will know right away when a bad choice is made and see the potential consequences.

In an unusual blend of fiction and nonfiction, A Pioneer Sampler chronicles one year in the lives of the Robinson family. Illustrated historical notes enlarge on the social history and describe activities related to the stories, from churning butter to predicting the weather. Young readers are invited to try their hand at these tasks to experience a bit of pioneer life.

King Arthur ruled the land of Camelot with his trusted knights, including the handsome and brave Sir Lancelot. Lancelot had a brother by the name of Ellsworth who wasn't quite as brave, but who was known for burping. When he was still a baby, his nurse decided that since Ellsworth was the brother of Lancelot, he would be known as "Sir Burpsalot." Sir Lancelot also had a little sister by the name of Wendy. Wendy was not like the other girls at Camelot. She did not want to learn how to sew, mend, and cook; she wanted to learn how to shoot a bow and arrow. People told her she couldn't shoot because shooting wasn't ladylike, but Wendy knew this was not fair. Burpsalot and Wendy may not sound like the usual heroes, but in the land of Camelot, heroes come in all shapes and sizes. Together, this brother and sister take on dragons and stinkers. They learn the ways of poodletooters and flutterbys. They make friends and bring honor to their family, despite humble beginnings.
