  • Here, George!

    Simon & Schuster Here, George!

    10 in stock

    Book SynopsisBeloved bestselling author Sandra Boynton collaborates with iconic New Yorker cartoonist George Booth to create this hilarious book about George, a lovable dog with a big secret.George is a big dog who likes to just sit around. But there’s another side to George that even his family doesn’t know about. With Sandra Boynton’s whimsical storytelling, and celebrated cartoonist George Booth’s one-of-a-kind illustrations, Here, George! is a sweet, quirky, and charming board book that’s a must-have for every collection! Yes, this is George. He likes to sit. He likes to sleep. He loves his family.Trade Review* "Renowned cartoonists Boynton and Booth team up for a delightful day in the life of canine George. This white dog lives a sedentary life and prefers to sit and sport a sour grin as members of his family beckon him one by one. With the exception of who's calling, the first several pages are identical: 'HERE, GEORGE!' says a voice. But 'George does not move.' However, after they leave the pooch on his own, he hears some music and gets up to dance Snoopy-style through a full double-page spread. When his humans return, they find George in the exact same position as they left him—but with some fond memories that summon a wag from 'his happy tail.' Boynton closes the work with the clever aside: 'And he is wild about dancing. (Which no one knows but you).' Booth's iconic cartoon dog, made famous in the pages of the New Yorker, is constructed with a fluid and endearingly shaky line. He masterfully registers a change in mood with a simple upward flick of a cartoon grin or a sideways glance. Boynton's text is a simple and playful complement, rendered a stand-alone visual element by the decidedly Booth-ian faux handwritten typeface. It's a one-joke book, but with such master humorists at work, who needs anything more?" * Kirkus, starred review *"Readers are let in on a secret in this story of a white dog that appears to spend much of his time perched on his knobby haunches and staring. When George’s family calls to him—'Here, George!'—George stays perfectly still: 'George does not move.' After watching 'the man and the lady and the child drive away' (they never appear on the page) and taking a nap, George perks up at the sound of distant music. Unexpectedly, 'now George is dancing. And dancing. And dancing.' Once George’s family comes home and calls out to him, Boynton and Booth return to the previous formula: 'George does not move, except for his happy tail.' New Yorker cartoonist Booth demonstrates his keen sense of the comedy to be found in contrast, as George goes from being nonresponsive and glum to kicking up his heels when no one is watching." * Publishers Weekly *

It’s BIG fun from Sandra Boynton in the big, big size of this favorite board book. ZANG! BOP! KIDDLY POW! The DINOSAUR DANCE is starting NOW!Trade ReviewThis review is for the original, board book edition: “Boynton is back with another winner. Her latest board book is all about dinosaurs. Readers are immediately told the dinosaur dance is beginning on the opening page. Each spread that follows involves rhyming couplets about dancing dinosaurs. Proper names, such as triceratops, velociraptor, and iguanodon, are used to identify each unique dinosaur. Movement possibilities are endless with the text, and this will be a great addition to storytime shelves.” * School Library Journal *This review is for the original, board book edition: “As her fans know, Boynton has a sly wit that respects the intelligence of her young fans and amuses the adults asked to ‘read it again.’ In this book she introduces nine dinosaurs, each of which dances in a way that seems totally appropriate for that particular species… This will have readers putting on their dancing shoes to do the ‘cha cha cha’ with their dino-babies.” * Kirkus Reviews *

    Book SynopsisTwo celebrated artists, Sandra Boynton and Yo-Yo Ma, come together for Jungle Night, a soothing bedtime board book. (Okay, MOSTLY soothing.) This board book guides us through the jungle to hear the distinctive, gentle snore of each animal: “Listen to the tiger: ZEEE-ZOOO-HAAA. Listen to the cheetah: CHEE-CHEE-TAAAH.” A free downloadable recording at JungleNight.com offers a narration of the book, with each and every animal snore interpreted by the expressive, playful cello of Yo-Yo Ma. He even does the elephant’s stop-the-show snore—though admittedly that took Ma’s cello PLUS the classic horn salute of the James R. Barker steamship. (Seriously.) All this fabulousness leads into the coolest lullaby ever: “Jungle Gymnopédie No. 1,” a polyrhythmic jungle-y arrangement by Boynton of Erik Satie’s renowned piece, with Yo-Yo Ma on cello, guitar played by Ron Block of Alison Krauss Union Station, and drums by Kevin MacLeod. “Yo-Yo and I chose this piece because it’s the most gorgeous and mesmerizing night song imaginable,” explains Boynton. “And there was surely nothing else that could get those animals back to sleep after that elephant blast.”

Welcome to the magical menagerie of author Sandra Boynton.” * People Magazine *“Sandra Boynton, long heralded for her menagerie of animal characters (Moo, Baa, La La La; Rhinoceros Tap), puts a fresh cast of singing, dancing critters center stage-from the titular boogying chickens to a tail-wagging "snuggle puppy"—in Philadelphia Chickens, a book-and-CD package billed as an ‘imaginary musical revue.’ The first 32 pages contain lyrics and illustrations, the second half of the book includes musical notation and additional lyrics for each song. An all-star cast, including Meryl Streep, Laura Linney, Eric Stoltz, and the Bacon Brothers, headlines the musical recording, which features a variety of original show tunes penned by Boynton and composed by Boynton and frequent collaborator Michael Ford.” * Publishers Weekly *

    Book SynopsisPookie gets ready for Easter in this adorable board book from the bestselling and beloved Sandra Boynton.It’s Easter! Join Mom and her little Pookie as they prepare for the sweetest of holidays. Pookie’s mom arranges an Easter play date with their friend, Bean, where they hop around like bunnies and decorate eggs. At the end of the day, Pookie dreams of the Easter Bunny and, of course, chocolate! We have egg paints! And crayons! And stickers galore! You can decorate eggs till there aren’t any more.Trade Review"Pookie’s friend Bean, a gray puppy, comes over for Easter fun that includes lots of bouncing around and egg decorating. After Bean goes home, Pookie gets excited about the Easter Bunny’s arrival and goes to sleep dreaming of a large chocolate egg. Like the other Pookie books before it, this one is told in rhyme from the perspective of a loving grown-up addressing the little pig, which keeps the pace moving and makes for a great read-aloud. Bean and Pookie are realistically—and endearingly—childlike, from Pookie’s pronunciation of yellow as “lellow!” to the joyful mess they make while decorating eggs. There are plenty of sweet and festive touches, such as the bunny ears that Bean and Pookie (and Pookie’s teddy) wear and the daffodils painted on the end of Pookie’s bed...For fans of Boynton and little Pookie, this Easter tale is exactly as expected: a touch of playfulness, a relatable story, and comfort in the familiar." * Kirkus Reviews *

    1 in stock

    Book SynopsisCatch up with the party-loving hippos from Hippos Go Berserk! in this long-awaited picture book more than forty-five years in the making—from the one and only Sandra Boynton!Hippos have a reputation for wild parties that go on till dawn. People have even gone so far as to say that partying hippos “go berserk.” Nobody knows how these rumors got started. But even if it’s true (it is), it’s not the whole story. Given the deep appreciation that hippos have for water, it’s no wonder that your average hippopotamus seeks, finds, and offers a state of flow, no matter the situation. We have much to learn from their example. Accordingly, this helpful book follows two typical hippos as they calmly and mindfully go about their ordinary hippo day. “O, flare thy wild nostrils, And welcome the day! Onward! And upward! Come what will, come what may.”Trade Review"This title’s hippo protagonists are not the same wholehearted party animals Boynton portrayed more than 45 years ago in Hippos Go Berserk! But make no mistake: these hippos are living their best, totally centered lives. Now they’re inclined to read from The Big Book of Hippoetry (“O, flare thy wild nostrils, and welcome the day!”), practice mindfulness (of spring snow flurries, “We can... enjoy how it feels on our noses and eyes”), and appreciate a home where they can “settle and breathe.” And when a visit to a friend turns into a raucous hippo party as in the days of yore (a full spread reveals party hats, pink drinks, and hijinks), the protagonists are perfectly capable of hanging in ’til dawn. But their journey home via wheelbarrow now includes a song of gratitude: “Hey I-EEE! I’m a goin’ HOME now!” The creator’s ability to make googly eyes speak volumes remains unmatched, and the reprise of these simple hippo shapes in her signature colorblock hues feels like an embrace from an old friend. As for the hippos, their Middle Way should resonate with introverts, extroverts, and everyone in between." * Publishers Weekly *"Boynton’s beloved hippos grace pages once more; this time their story is a play on the author’s debut, Hippos Go Berserk (1977). A cozy day at home turns out quite unexpectedly for the titular hippos. As they wander outside “in the cool April weather,” it suddenly begins to snow. A loud group of ducks interrupts their quiet, and an evening with a friend eventually becomes an opportunity for a partying group of hippos to go…well, berserk. Through it all, the hippos greet each surprise with a positive attitude, turning something like spring snow into a sensory delight. Boynton’s fans will surely approve of this hippo revival. The illustrations are easily recognizable, and eagle-eyed readers will note that the scene with the party animals is a near-identical replica of that in the original. Readers will chuckle at the hippos’ version of poetry and a ringing telephone that demands to be answered. The rhyming text hits a familiar rhythm and read-aloud cadence. From deep breathing to displaying flexibility, the hippos demonstrate useful self-soothing techniques to little readers. Perhaps the most profound technique is that sometimes, remaining calm in a situation means joining in and letting loose with the not-so-calm crew." * Kirkus Reviews *
