  • Jackson's Blanket / La couverture de Jackson: Babl Children's Books in French and English

    Nancy Cote

    Paperback (Babl Books, Inc., May 26, 2016)
    La couverture de Jackson / Jackson's BlanketBabl Children's Books in French and EnglishJackson loves his blanket more than anything in the world. He’s had it since he was born, and he brings it everywhere - to grandma’s house, on vacation, to the doctor’s office. His parents tell him he’s too big to be carrying his blanket with him all the time, but he’s just not ready to put it away! One day, when he finds a cold, lonely little kitten in the snow, Jackson realizes that sharing his blanket might be more important than keeping it all to himself. From Nancy Cote: “As Jackson discovers, it’s so easy to make the world a better place. Wrap your love around a homeless pet. Support your local animal shelter!” Reviews “The streamlined text and realistic watercolor illustrations come together to show how a boy grows up just a bit when the time is right. A great addition to most collections.” - School Library Journal “Cote's functional illustrations, in watercolor-pencil and gouache, are pleasant, but the real meat is in the text. With a non-preachy and empowering ending, this story will certainly ring true to those ready (or not quite) to give up their loveys.” - KirkusAbout Babl BooksBabl Books partners with award winning authors to bring your favorite books to a variety of new languages for children all over the world to enjoy.

  • Leonard's Beard

    Nancy Cote

    language (Sky Pony, Nov. 22, 2016)
    Leonard is a writer with many stories to tell. In his house on a hill, with his dogs and his frog, he writes stories of adventures and excitement. He is so consumed with his stories, though, that he loses touch with all of his friends and feels very lonely.Each day Leonard’s beard grows longer and longer, and more wild and untamed, as he fills up pages and pages of stories. His life becomes dull and much less exciting as he focuses too much on his writing. Leonard is so busy that he doesn’t notice a storm is brewing until the wind shakes the windows, the roof, and the floor and a strong gust knocks off his door. Once the storm passes, Leonard discovers just how out of control his beard has gotten. He finds strange things that have gotten stuck in there, including a mouse, a bird, and some apples. As Leonard removes the items from his beard, he comes to realize that being consumed with writing adventures has prevented him from having his own.Leonard’s Beard is a story about discovering what is important in life. The rhyming text is perfect for reading aloud, and the illustrations of all of the silly things that wind up in Leonard’s beard will have little ones giggling on each reread!Sky Pony Press, with our Good Books, Racehorse and Arcade imprints, is proud to publish a broad range of books for young readers—picture books for small children, chapter books, books for middle grade readers, and novels for young adults.
