• Dr. Seuss’s Sleep Book

    Age Range: 6+ years

    Catch a case of the yawns with Dr. Seuss in this classic rhyming picture book. Bedtime has never been more fun!

    A yawn is quite catching, you see. Like a cough.
    It just takes one yawn to start other yawns off.

    Dr. Seuss spins a sleep-tastic tale about a very small bug and a very big yawn that spreads and spreads. Meanwhile, the Audio-Telly-o-Tally-o Count adds up every sleeping creature from the country of Keck to the Castle of Krupp. First one, then seven, all the way to the billions and zillions, the Who’s-Asleep-Count just keeps growing and growing! This book is a perfect bedtime story that will have the most reluctant readers laughing, and the most reluctant sleepers snoring!

    Ninety-nine zillion, nine trillion and two
    Creatures are sleeping!
    So…How about you?

  • Dracula

    “Welcome to my house! Enter freely and of your own will!”

    He made no motion of stepping to meet me, but stood like a statue, as though his gesture of welcome had fixed him into stone. The instant, however, that I had stepped over the threshold, he moved impulsively forward, and holding out his hand grasped mine with a strength which made me wince, an effect which was not lessened by the fact that it seemed as cold as ice―more like the hand of a dead than a living man.

    Stoker’s Dracula tells the story of Count Dracula, a Transylvanian nobleman, who is also a vampire. He attempts to move to London, in order to spread his undead curse, and to complete the transaction, he enlists the help of one of the story’s main protagonists, Jonathan Harker, a solicitor who becomes a prisoner in Dracula’s castle.

    The events of the novel ultimately lead to a battle between Count Dracula and another of the main protagonists, the vampire hunter, Abraham Van Helsing, with the latter aiming to destroy Dracula and prevent his curse from spreading.
