Charlotte is different from the other sheep. She likes to explore the world around her, climbing up trees and wandering near the dangerous road while the wary old sheep "tsk, tsk." But when danger strikes, only Charlotte is brave enough to go for help and save the day. This beautifully illustrated tale speaks to all shy little sheep who stand out from the crowd and aren't afraid to follow their dreams. Recognition A New York Times Best Illustrated book Reviews "Each dreamlike image is suffused with colors that are rich yet subdued a kind of Chagall-meets-Rothko mash-up that suggests sleepy-time happiness." -New York Times Book Review "The artwork . . . is both handsome and just a bit whimsical." -Booklist "Brave Charlotte is a wonderfully illustrated book. You'll think of Charlotte as smart and brave when the other sheep think she is silly for traveling to get help. A great read." -Book Review Café, About the Author Anu Stohner, born in Helsinki, Finland, is a freelance translator and author living in Munich, Germany.

A little bear is bored and has no idea what to do with himself. He tries to find a friend to play with him, but no one is around or available yet. Dejected, the little bear lays down on the ground with nothing to do but to stare at the sky or the grass. How boring! Slowly, though, as he sits still, the world begins to come alive around him and his senses are awakened. The grass and the forest around him and the sky above him seem like a very different place and the bear finds himself full of curiosity. He sees things he hasn’t seen before like the shapes in the clouds and feels things he hasn’t felt before like the vibration of a bird’s wings.I Am So Bored! is a book about imagination, slowing down the pace of life, and the power of all five senses. Take a journey with the little bear as he realizes the beauty of life that exists in the world around him. The perfect story to help little ones wind down and to take a break from screen time. Remember: boredom can sometimes be the best way to have fun.

Santa's littlest helper gets so excited about Christmas that his beautiful presents are finished, his sleigh washed and honey biscuits baked long before the other helpers have even thought about wrapping paper. But every year, when Christmas finally comes, Santa Claus can't allow littlest Santa help to deliver the presents. He is just too little. Littlest Santa goes home alone, and is preparing for a lonely night by the fire, when instead he makes a very exciting discovery, and might just have the chance to deliver some presents after all.

Charlotte has always stood out from the flock for her courage and sense of adventure. So when a group of sheep start bullying the others, Charlotte knows she has to do something about it. But there's an even bigger, even scarier bully lurking in the woods.... Our sheepish heroine is back in another exciting adventure, brought to life by truly exquisite acrylic paintings.

Every year Santa's littlest helper makes wonderful presents for the children, bakes delicious cookies, and shines his sleigh...and every year the biggest helper tells him no, he can't go with the others to help Santa deliver presents. He's just too small. But one year the littlest one overhears the animals in the forest complain that they never get Christmas presents-and he knows just what to do. The other helpers are so proud they name him Santa to the animals for every year to come.

As Christmas approaches, everything is going according to plan―the toys are finished and the sleighs are packed. But when all of Santa's helper's develop a terrible case of Christmas spots, it begins to look as if Christmas might not happen. But don't count Santa's littlest helper out! Together with his animal friends, the Littlest Santa packs the sleigh and sets out on an around-the-world journey to deliver Christmas gifts―one child and one country at time. From the talented creators of the New York Times Best Illustrated Book, Brave Charlotte, comes a heart-warming tale of friendship and goodwill.
