Описание: Nine of Richard Scarry's best Little Golden Books come together in a colorful, deluxe volume, ready for gift-giving! This unique collection of Richard Scarry's Little Golden Books brims with colorful cars, droll animals, and a sly fox or two. From fables ("The Country Mouse and the City Mouse") to folktales ("The Gingerbread Man") to goodnight stories (Good Night, Little Bear), there are hours of fun for everyone in this beautifully bound book. Favorites such as The Animals of Farmer Jones and The Bunny Book are here, along with stories that have not been available in many years, such as Polite Elephant, Cars and Trucks, Chicken Little, and even Duck and His Friends, which was originally published in 1949. Breathtaking illustrations and stories currently found only in this volume make it a gift to cherish.

Описание: Five Oaks, Michigan is not exactly where Saul and Patsy meant to end up. Both from the East Coast, they met in college, fell in love, and settled down to married life in the Midwest. Saul is Jewish and a compulsively inventive worrier; Patsy is gentile and cheerfully pragmatic. On Saul's initiative (and to his continual dismay) they have moved to this small town-a place so devoid of irony as to be virtually "a museum of earlier American feelings"-where he has taken a job teaching high school.

Soon this brainy and guiltily happy couple will find children have become a part of their lives, first their own baby daughter and then an unloved, unlovable boy named Gordy Himmelman. It is Gordy who will throw Saul and Patsy's lives into disarray with an inscrutable act of violence. As timely as a news flash yet informed by an immemorial understanding of human character, Saul and Patsy is a genuine miracle.
