About the award-winning Icon Uncle Wiggily series... Uncle Wiggily Longears is the main character and beloved icon of a series of children's stories by American author Howard R. Garis. He began writing the stories for the Newark News in 1910. Garis penned an Uncle Wiggily take every day for more than 52 years, and published some 79 books in his lifetime. Along the road on his many joyous and exciting episodic adventures Uncle Wiggily has run into several very questionable characters including: the Woozy Wolf, Bushy Bear, Skillery Skallery Alligator and the fierce Bobcat. That being said, the instantly lovable, dear old Uncle Wiggily is also close to many amicable animals friends and family, such his muskrat housekeeper, Nurse Jane Fuzzy Wuzzy, as well as Sammie and Susie Littletail, Jimmie Wibblewobble, Dr. Possum, Uncle Butter, Jackie, and of course, Peetie Bow-Wow. Uncle Wiggily has been around now for over 100 years delighting children, gently educating, and enchanting generations of faithful fans. That he is still as popular today as he was over a century ago is testament to the wit and character instilled in these tall tales by the author and the kind, old rabbit gentleman he created so long ago!

A children's environmental mystery adventure! Meant to be experienced by adult and child (or adolescent) together, this book will tune you both into nature as you search for an answer to a watery problem with young Pilar and her animal friends. Something is not right in the forest, and its creatures are desperate for help. They're used to living only in the present, and need someone who can think ahead - and someone who can hear their voices. Pilar, visiting her grandpa at the lake this summer, is drawn into the mystery with a heroic dog-friend named Bones, and together they trek to the "other side" in a memorable, though-provoking quest. I wrote this book for my children to read to their children, as entertainment primarily, but also a way to teach new words and concepts. It isn't written in childish language, and is very much intended to be a shared, experience between adult and child. I used to make up stories to tell my kids at bedtime, and was surprised how the characters stuck with them into adulthood. They remember the names better than I do! I wanted to create that bedtime excitement in a way that could be shared with next generations of my family, but the reaction has been so strong that I now want to share it with other parents and children, and grand parents and grand children. This isn't a story that was mapped out or outlined. As with the plays that I write, I created characters and then followed them where they took me. The result was a special tale that winds through a forest, with special friends learning how to communicate and cope with surprising challenges. Listen to Crying Trees with your children today!

The Elements of Style by William Strunk, Jr. is an American English writing style guide. It is one of the best-known and most influential prescriptive treatments of English grammar and usage, and often is required reading in US high school and university composition classes. The original 1918 edition of The Elements of Style detailed eight elementary rules of usage, 10 elementary principles of composition, a few matters of form, and a list of commonly "misused" words and expressions. This book, printed as a private edition in 1918 for the use of his students, became a classic on the local campus, known as "the little book", and its successive editions have since sold over 10 million copies. This version is based on the public-domain text from 1918, which was originally uploaded to Wikibooks and wikified by Wikibooks: User: Lord Emsworth in 2003.
