About Say Hello!:Carmelita loves to greet everyone in her colorful neighborhood. There are people from so many different cultures! They all like to say hello too, so now Carmelita can say hello in Spanish, English, French, Japanese, and many other languages. And her dog, Manny - well, he seems to understand everyone and gives a happy "Woof!" wherever he goes. 
About the author:Caldecott Honor winner Rachel Isadora is the author of such popular children's books as Saving Strawberry Farm, Uh-Oh, and Ben's Trumpet. Her eye-catching collages are full of kid-friendly details like colorful storefronts, pigeons and an ice cream truck, making Carmelita's neighborhood fun to explore. Emphasizing the rich diversity of America's neighborhoods, this simple portrait of a child's day provides a great introduction to the joy of language. 
About Doug-Dennis and the Flyaway Fib:When best buds Doug-Dennis and Ben-Bobby go to the circus, something terrible happens. Doug-Dennis eats all of his friend's popcorn and then tells a fib which grows and grows, carrying Doug-Dennis away. As the lie gets bigger, Doug-Dennis flies higher, until he's floating in a land of lies. Some of them are big, some small, and some just downright weird. Doug-Dennis misses his best friend, and realizes there's only one way to come back down: to tell the truth. 
About the author:Debut author and illustrator Darren Farrell, a bright new talent in children's books, has created a cautionary tale that is chock-full of hilarity. His charming sheep and the equally delightful elephant are sure to become favorite characters.  powerHouse Arena, 37 Main Street, Brooklyn, NY 11201 tel: 212.604.9074 fax: 212.366.5247 email: aaron@powerHouseArena.com | |||
