Books with author Marie Harris

Everyone's favorite countdown is back! Marian and Jim Harris have returned with another pet-tastic counting book.Written in lyrical rhyme, Ten Little Kittens will charm pint-sized picture book fans (and their parents) with its richly detailed illustrations of the kittens' quirky adventures. Starting with the requisite bed-jumping, our furry little heroes go on to wrangle the Loch Ness Monster, play dress up rather royally, and do some ill-fated Christmas tree trimming. Kids will be kept on their toes, wondering, "what's next?" as they count all the way down to the last mischievous little kitten.

Count along as a collection of mischievous puppies breathe new life into the popular "Ten in the Bed" nursery rhyme. These cute little rascals find all sorts of inventive ways to get into trouble in this engaging countdown. Bright illustrations brimming with whimsical details and silly, rhyming text round out a story that's more fun than a barrel of puppies.

Babies Are Noisy! has been written as a short story with plenty of illustrations. It follllows a young child with autism' perspective of having a new baby in the family. Through the wonderful illustrations and sensitve story line the reader learns of the scenarios and experiences 'Andre' has as he witnesses the inevitable changes having a new baby in the family brings. The book differs from other new baby stories, by sharing very specifically some sensory and social experiences and helpful strategies. A delightful example is of Andre listening to his own comforting music on his head phones to help him cope with the noise in the clinic waiting room. Many of 'Andre's' experiences have been influenced by real life situations; families have reported when having a new baby.
