Rosemary Wells returns with two new books! Sunday, November 11, 2:00
Max & Ruby are like peanutbutter & jelly - we just can't get enough! Delight in their newest interactive escapade in Max & Ruby's Treasure Hunt.
"..Perfect for one-to-one sharing or small group participation; one reading will not be enough." ~ Kirkus Review
In Following Grandfather, Wells explores the grief of a young mouse upon the passing of her beloved Grandfather.
"... Writing with tenderness and humor, Wells creates an authentic, parallel, mouse-sized world within Boston while introducing readers to human-sized devotion and grief in the fully developed relationship between Jenny and Grandfather... Poignant and sweet." ~ Kirkus Review
Born in in New York City, Rosemary Wells grew up in a house filledwith "books, dogs, and nineteenth-century music." After a brief tenure at the Museum School in Boston, she married and began a career as a book designer, then published her own first picture book in 1968. From the start, Rosemary Wells’s work has been recognized for its strong sense of humor and realism and its gently rebellious approach to childhood. Her books have received numerous honors, including a New York Times Book Review Best Illustrated Book of the Year and a Publisher's Weekly Best Book of the Year award for MY VERY FIRST MOTHER GOOSE.
