• Thidwick the Big-Hearted Moose

    Age Range: 6+ years

    Join one of Dr. Seuss’s most giving characters in the classic picture book Thidwick the Big-Hearted Moose. Poor Thidwick’s generosity proves the adage that no good deed goes unpunished, and soon everyone, from a tiny Bingle Bug to a huge bear, is taking advantage of our antlered hero.

    With Seuss’s rhyming text and endearing illustrations, this beloved story about a kind-hearted moose and the bullies that make a home on his horns is an ideal way to introduce children to the invaluable concept of self-respect.

  • Lady Chatterley’s Lover

    What happens when a cultured bohemian feels stifled in a sexless marriage to her invalid husband?

    She takes on a lover…

    Constance Chatterley, the wife of Clifford Chatterley, finds herself trapped in a loveless and lifeless marriage. When her husband urges her to have a liaison with someone from their own class, Constance gets attracted to a man from the working class instead– an Oliver Mellors who is her husband’s gamekeeper– and takes him as her lover.

    Ina  society that reveres class difference, will an aristocrat woman be allowed her torrid love affair with a lowly man?

    A novel notorious for being pornographic and way ahead of its time, Lady Chatterley’s Lover brewed up quite a controversy when it was first published in 1928. It was only decades later, in 1960, that its unexpurgated edition could be openly published in the UK.

  • The Sneetches and Other Stories

    Age Range: 6+ years

    THE SNEETCHES
    “Now, the Star-Belly Sneetches / Had bellies with stars. / The Plain-Belly Sneetches / Had none upon thars.” This collection of four of Dr. Seuss’s most winning stories begins with that unforgettable tale of the unfortunate Sneetches, bamboozled by one Sylvester McMonkey McBean (“the Fix-it-up Chappie”), who teaches them that pointless prejudice can be costly.

    THE ZAX
    Following the Sneetches, a South-Going Zax and a North-Going Zax seem determined to butt heads on the prairie of Prax.

    TOO MANY DAVES
    Then there’s the tongue-twisting story of Mrs. McCave–you know, the one who had 23 sons and named them all Dave. (She realizes that she’d be far less confused had she given them different names, like Marvin O’Gravel Balloon Face or Zanzibar Buck-Buck McFate.)

    WHAT WAS I SCARED OF?
    A slightly spooky adventure involving a pair of haunted trousers–“What was I scared of?”–closes out the collection. Sneetches and Other Stories is Seuss at his best, with distinctively wacky illustrations and ingeniously weird prose. (Ages 4 to 8) –Paul Hughes
