› Find signed collectible books: 'Little Miss Spider'
How did the beloved Miss Spider begin her life as a spiderling? In this engaging prequel to David Kirk's Miss Spider books, the spider starlet herself has just popped out of her egg and is wondering where her mother could be.
"Did she squeeze down a hole?Little Miss Spider's plaintive cries are heard by a passing beetle, who offers her kind assistance. The search continues, and suddenly our heroine finds herself in harrowing danger. Will the one who loves her best save her in time?
Or dive underwater?
Why won't she come out here
And meet her new daughter?"
Each book in Kirk's bestselling series, including Miss Spider's ABC and Miss Spider's New Car, explodes with brilliant, glossy color and charming personality. His shiny close-up oil paintings catch young readers like insects in a web (but with much happier results). Adopted children and those in nontraditional families may take extra pleasure in the message this flashback story proffers: your mother is the creature who loves you best--whomever that may be.

› Find signed collectible books: 'Little Pig, Biddle Pig'
Is Little Pig, Biddle Pig simply too clean and pretty to stoop to mud-pool romps? After all, she is "Sweet as alfalfa / And grand as a queen." Conflicted by her desire to remain pink and glossy or to join those "wiggily wallowers" in the muck, lonely Little Pig grows more and more unhappy. Will she keep her snout up in the air just to avoid the muddy swine, or can this regal piglet get over herself and revel in the "glorious slop"?
David Kirk, creator of the Miss Spider and Little Miss Spider series, as well as the Biddle Books sequence (Little Bird, Biddle Bird, etc.), applies his unusual and striking style to great effect in this tiny tale. Every two-page spread shows a shiny full-bleed image of deliriously happy, filthy pigs or our posy pink heroine on one side, with a rhyming verse on the other, along with various clean critters shying away from the splashing mud. The momentum builds and children will keep turning pages to find out the answer--will she or won't she? And the heavenly sludgy coolness when she finally does succumb to the pleasure (come on, you knew she would)--is almost palpable. (Baby to preschool) --Emilie Coulter [via]
