Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Father has had a long hard day at work. A sorely trying day indeed. He wants to sit down and put his feet up and rest. But what does he find when he arrives home? Commotion, consternation, confusion, chaos rule! How to get to the bottom of it? How to restore some semblance of proper order? The investigation, reluctantly begun, expands in widening circles to take in the whole family, as finger points to pointing finger. Perhaps everyone is to blame? Perhaps to set things straight everyone just needs to sit down, say sorry, and start over again? That family life is just that simple and never quite that simple is the message Russell and Lillian Hoban, the creators of such classics as Bread and Jam for Frances, A Little Sister for Frances, and The Little Brute Family, bring alive in this cleverly fashioned and heartwarmingly illustrated tale of a house in uproar.

Download or read book THE TALE OF SQUIRREL NUTKIN written by Beatrix Potter and published by Abela Publishing Ltd. This book was released on 2018-03-17 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Tale of Squirrel Nutkin is a children's book written and illustrated by Beatrix Potter and first published by Frederick Warne & Co. in August 1903. The story is about an impertinent red squirrel named Nutkin and his narrow escape from an owl called Old Brown. The book followed Potter's hugely successful The Tale of Peter Rabbit, and was an instant hit. The now familiar endpapers of the Peter Rabbit series were introduced in the book. One commentator has likened Squirrel Nutkin's impertinent behaviour to that of the rebellious working-class of Potter's own day, and another commentator has noted the tale's similarities to pourquoi tales and folk tales in its explanations of Squirrel Nutkin's short tail and characteristics of squirrel behaviour. An abbreviated version of the tale appeared as a segment in the 1971 ballet film, The Tales of Beatrix Potter. Squirrel Nutkin had its origins in a story and picture letter Potter sent Norah Moore, the daughter of her former governess, Annie Carter Moore. The background illustrations were modelled on Derwentwater and St. Herbert's Island in the Lake District. ============= KEYWORDS: Squirrel Nutkin, Beatrix Potter, children’s stories, lake district, Derwentwater, England, bedtime stories, mischievous, animals, Owl, brother, Twinkleberry, wood, lake, trees, nut bushes, Old Brown Owl, hazel, raft of twigs, Owl Island, Rhyme, riddles, asleep, sacks, nuts, fat mole, Mr Brown, Hitty Pitty, oak-apples, scarlet, yellow, paddle, fat minnow, six fat beetles, dock-leaf, pine-needle pin, Flour of England, fruit of Spain, robin, pincushion, hill, tippitty top, bonniest swine, Tipple-tine, impertinence, honey, big flat rock, ninepins, laughing, shouting, Humpty Dumpty, beck, Hickamore, sunbeam, King of Scots, Arthur of the Bower, waistcoat, staircase,

Browse through the indexes and find titles for every interest and mood: picture books about cats, mice, or dinosaurs for babies; funny books to read aloud to toddlers; series about family life or school or fantasy adventures for a middle-grade child; books on divorce or death; and coming-of-age novels just right for someone starting junior high school. There are also indexes for books about minorities and religion, an age-appropriate reading-level index, and much more. Lavishly decorated with more than three hundred illustrations from representative titles, the guide also features extra-wide margins for notes on which of your children liked which book, at what age, and why. Thus the guide becomes a family reading record as well as an invaluable resource you'll use again and again.
