Description

The Lady at Liberty The Statue of Liberty needs a little time off from her duties and decides to go and see the land she has been hostessing for the last century. The art for this book was originally created as a collection of greeting cards, calendars, and posters commissioned by Bloomingdale's Dept. store. Many are still available through this website ( go to Statue of Liberty icon on the homepage).How To Show Grown-Ups the Museum A kid-friendly guide to the collection at the Museum of Modern Art in New York. Commissioned by the M.O.M.A.in 1985. We're Back! A Dinosaur's Story What would happen if a time-traveling salesman from another planet tested a new product called Brain Grain I.Q.Enhancer on a bunch of dinosaurs and then dropped them off in New York City? And it happens to be Thanksgiving Day? Here's a hint: they flee to the safety of the Museum of Natural History after causing panic when they mistake the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade for a welcoming ceremony. First published in 1987, We're Back! was named Children's Book of the Year by the Library of Congress. In 1993 it was transformed into an animated feature film by Steven Spielberg and continues to enjoy an ongoing life as a home video. In print for over twelve years, this book and the two sequels listed below will soon be republished by Hudson's current publisher. Going Hollywood! A Dinosaur's Dream Rex and the gang from We're Back! take their shot at fame and glory while contending with tar pools, big feet and Hollywood-size egos. The film rights to this book were also purchased by a major Hollywood studio but for some unknown reason it has never been produced. Go figure! Your Pet Dinosaur - An Owner's Manual No modern home is complete without a guide to the care and feeding of those scaley rascals. Dr.Rex, foremost authority from the Museum of Relatively Natural History, leads us through such sticky situations as housebreaking you pteranadon, teething triceratopses, and the heartbreak of delinquent dinos (just hide the car keys). Into the Woods Once upon a time... Those four words begin any number of coming-of-age stories where characters such as Cinderella, Jack (of the beanstalk fame), and the girl with the red cape learn some very real -- and often painful -- lessons on the way to growing up. Hudson's illustrations accompany his novelization of the now legendary Broadway musical by the Pulitzer Prize-winning team of Stephen Sondheim and James Lapine. In honor of the revival of the musical now running on Broadway, Simon and Schuster has published a soft-cover edition of the book. Amazon Diary The tale of Alex Winters, a sixth grader from Chicago on his way to visit his parents in South America. When his small plane crashes in the Amazon Jungle he is rescued by a stone-age tribal people known as the Yanomami. The book is made up of the character's diary entries while living with the Yanomami, all based on the authors' own, true experiences. Unique in its collage -style use of photography, illustration, and hand-written text, Amazon Diary re-creates the experience of contact with a quickly disappearing culture from a kid's point of view.
