WITH MY UMBRELLA, I CAN

CHASE away a gloomy day with Penelope Puddle and a small black umbrella that sparks her imagination. To Penelope the umbrella is a magic wand that is adaptable and can transport her anywhere. From flying, skiing and sailing to basking in the sun, Penelope gets creative amid lush rural lanes, breezy ocean beaches and snowy mountain peaks that suspend over rainforests and cityscapes. Her make-believe antics merge with scenes that reflect the true magic and diversity of her West Coast playground in British Columbia, Canada.

COUCH AND COMPANY

SNUGGLE into this spellbinding tale about a little girl named Rue who tumbles down the crevice of a second-hand couch to find buttons, coins and dust balls surprisingly animated and in fear of a hot-tempered bully. The highly descriptive prose could draw out some unexpected theatrical skills from parents when dramatizing the story aloud to children. The tiny town under siege inside the sofa and its remarkable residents offer an entertaining read with a quirky lesson. It will take teamwork and creative thinking to overcome the grouch hidden in the bouncy lettuce-green couch. (Short story, no illustrations.)
