Books with author Larry G. Jones

Lola and Binky are a little girl and boy of about the same age as the children who will be delighted by the very unusual illustrations in this heavy boardbook. Each illustration features a touch-and-feel press-out piece with textures to touch that match each picture. For instance, when Lola and Binky have fun at the park, their pet dog comes along with them. One of the illustrations shows their friendly dog, and this picture can be removed from the page, then snapped back in again, like a piece in a jigsaw puzzle. Better yet, the dog�s back is covered with a patch of real fur-like fabric. When toddlers touch it, they�ll be tempted to think they�re touching a real dog. In this book, Lola and Binky go to the park, where they touch a shiny butterfly, and downy baby duck, and several other objects.

GETTING SHOT!!! TODAY, OUR YOUNG KIDS THINK SHOOTING SOMEONE OR GETTING SHOT GIVES THEM CREDIBILITITY OR SOME TYPE OF BADGE OF HONOR. KIDS NEED TO BE THEMSELVES, INSTEAD OF BEING WHAT THE STREETS THINK THEY SHOULD BE! KILLING OR INFLICTING SERIOUS BODILY HARM ON SOMEONE HAS SET THE BLACK RACE BACK 400 YEARS! WHEN I WAS SHOT IN A NIGHT CLUB, I WAS MORE EMBARRASSED THAN ANYTHING; I DIDN'T NEED A BADGE OF HONOR, BECAUSE I WAS SECURE WITH WHO I WAS. I REFUSED TO LET THE STREETS DICTATE MY CHARACTER...MY CHARACTER DICTATED THE WAY THE STREETS SHOULD BE! I GREW UP IN THE "HOOD", BUT I DID NOT HAVE THAT "HOOD" MENTALITY. -LT. GARRY L. JONES

In this book, the pop-out lamb has a soft, wooly body, but the cow�s back is soft and smooth. Lola and Binky also touch and feel a horse, a pig, and the farmer�s shiny tractor.
