　　Millions of cats
　　Winner of Newbery Honor, Wanda Gág's timeless tales tells of an old
　　man who sets off in search of a beautiful cat to bring home as a companion for
　　his wife. But instead of one cat, he comes back with “Hundreds of cats,
　　thousands of cats, Millions and billions and trillions of cats”…
　　Snippy and Snappy
　　In this charming book, we are introduced to brother and sister field
　　mice living with their mother and father in a cozy nook in a hay field. Their
　　father enthralls them with stories about gardens in big fields, houses in big
　　gardens, kitchen cupboards in big houses, and big
　　yellow cheeses in big kitchen cupboards.
　　One day Snippy and Snappy wander away from home while playing with
　　their mother's yarn ball. Their journey takes them to a large house full of
　　mysterious things, including cupboards full of wonderful-smelling cheese. Just
　　as Snappy begins to nibble at a piece of cheese in a mousetrap, their father
　　jumps down to rescue them and lead them safely back home.
　　Gág's delightfully detailed illustrations capture the coziness, wonder,
　　and playfulness of Snippy and Snappy's adventures.
　　Nothing at all
　　"Nothing-at-all" is the name of an orphaned puppy living with
　　his two brothers until two children come to adopt them. Unfortunately,
　　Nothing-at-all gets inadvertently left behind－not out of cruelty, but because he is invisible!
　　He is horribly lonely until he meets a bird, a Jackdaw, who says
　　that he knows how to make the puppy visible. Nothingat- all doesn't think much
　　of the bird at first, but follows the instructions anyway, and after a little
　　time, hard work, and a lot of dizziness, the puppy becomes visible and is
　　adopted along with his brothers.
　　The Funny Thing
　　The Funny Thing is Wanda Gág’s follow-up to her well-loved classic,
　　Millions of Cats . It tells the story of a curious dragonlike “aminal” that
　　eats children’s dolls. A kindly man named Bobo cannot stand by and allow this
　　to happen. He entices it to eat the concoction “jum-jills.”
　　A happy ending is assured when the Funny Thing discovers he loves
　　them and never eats another doll.
　　THE ABC BUNNY
　　An unfortunate accident with an Apple drives Bunny from Bunnyland to
　　Elsewhere. Every letter in the alphabet is represented in Bunny’s journey,
　　through what he eats (Greens), to whom he meets (Insects, Jay, Kitten, Lizard),
　　and then a little sleep (Nap), to Tripping back to town, right side Up and
　　Up-sidedown.
　　This edition is a special ABC book for children, Wanda Ga'g illustrates
　　the pictures with 26 letters, Karen L. Smith from Canada is invited to bring
　　young readers with the story of Bunny. A marvelous book for family reading!
　　GONE IS GONE
　　In this delightful story we meet Fritzl, a farmer who lives with his
　　wife Liesi, their
　　baby kinndli, and Spitz, their dog. Fritzl works hard
　　in the fields every day. Liesi works hard all day, too, but Fritzl somehow
　　feels that he works harder. When he complains about how hard he works and how
　　easy Liesi has it, and Liesi suggests they trade places.
　　The tale’s sly peasant humor and conversational style combined with
　　Gág’s expressive black-and-white illustrations made the book an instant
　　classic. The hilarious outcomes of Fritzl's calamitous day at home are
　　portrayed in Gág's singular illustrations. In the end Fritzl admits that his
　　wife's work is "none too easy” and begs to return to his fields and not do housework another
　　day. And they live in peace and happiness for ever and
　　ever.
