Mr. Large in Charge
by Jill Murphy
Find this book in our catalog.
Jacket Notes:
"Jill Murphy's latest insightful snapshot of parenthood is a thumpingly entertaining picture book about elephants, and us." -- THE SUNDAY TIMES (London)
Mrs. Large isn't feeling well, so Mr. Large sends her back to bed. "I'll take charge," he says. So while he and the children get busy vacuuming, dusting, and tidying, Mrs. Large settles down for a nice rest. But somehow ("I want my mommy!") Mrs. Large's restful day (What's that burning smell?) is not as restful as she'd hoped. Wise moms, well-meaning dads, and their spirited offspring will all laugh in recognition at this droll, expressively illustrated story.

Stuff to Hold Your Stuff
by Ellen Warwick
Find this book in our catalog.
03/01/2007 REVIEW: School Library Journal
Gr 6 Up- This book has easy-to-follow step-by-step instructions for making a variety of bags, totes, wallets, etc., accompanied by color cartoon-style illustrations and photos of finished items. Tools include pinking shears and a utility knife, and a sewing machine is recommended over hand sewing; some knowledge of sewing is assumed, although construction tips are included. Many of the bags are made from creative materials such as clear plastic, neckties, and place mats. A good addition where sewing is popular.-G. Alyssa Parkinson, Highland Township Library, MI
