The Adventures of Simple Simon: Retold and with Pictures

Hold on to your hat! Tommy was a piper's son, He learned to pipe when he was young; The only song that he could play Was over the hills and far away. Over the hills and a long way off The wind shall blow my top hat off. Come join the fun as Tom, an otter pup, sets out on a merry journey through the various seasons, enchanting young and old alike with his exuberant piping. Among his charmed listeners are raccoons, rabbits, pigs, and a well-dressed snail -- but the most charmed of all is Molly, who accepts his hand in marriage. In reimagining this traditional folk song, Chris Conover once again proves her incredible skill, which was touted by School Library Journal: "No one portrays animals in a more charming and expressive way than Conover." For the musically inclined, music for piano and guitar is in the back of the book.

Over the Hills & Far Away

Prince Leo discovers a new treasure -- books When Prince Leo, a lion, is born with wings on his back, his father bellows, "Our son will go far!" It's not long before that declaration takes on a literal meaning. The day arrives when Leo flaps his wings and learns that flying is simple - but stopping is another story. Exhausted and far from home, he eventually crash-lands and is found by King Otto of the North, a bear who cares for Leo while he recovers. The best medicine of all turns out to be the books that are read to him - Leo's kingdom doesn't have books. When he's finally ready to return home - after taking flying and reading lessons - Leo will be bringing a wonderful treasure back with him. Chris Conover, with her large-scale, intricately detailed illustrations, has outdone herself.

"An exceptionally appealing treatment of the tale of Mother Goose's perennial simpleton...Conover's palette is extremely rich, and every detail is thoughtfully chosen and lovingly executed...An imaginative journey unparalleled in any previous visual interpretation of the rhyme."-Starred/School Library Journal
