With stunning black-and-white artwork and a gorgeous package, Henry Cole's animal fantasy adventure harkens back to Brian Jacques's Redwall and Avi's Poppy series.
	In the Hill, animals work as Weavers, Smelters, and Carvers-but Twig doesn't know who he wants to be. He tries very hard in all his classes, but his imagination wanders to his favorite books or the delicious mayapples growing beyond the scavenge yard . . . and then he loses his focus.
	After Twig makes a big mistake in front of everyone, he sets out on a secret journey to discover himself. But as he wanders deeper into the Yard than he's ever wandered before, Twig finds a curious colored globe. A dragon's egg-which hatches in front of his eyes.
	Now protecting the baby dragon is all Twig wants to do. But when he learns that his secret might hurt others, he's forced to make a choice between his place in the world and the feelings in his heart.]]></description><link>https://toledo.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S981C16819236</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://toledo.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S981C16819236</guid><category><![CDATA[EBOOK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Cole, Henry]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 31 Jan 2016 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://toledo.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/16819236981</comments><format>EBOOK</format><subtitle>A Story About Finding Treasure and the Unexpected Magic of Friendship</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780062245458/MC.GIF&amp;client=tlcovega&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Another Quest for Celeste]]></title><description><![CDATA[Celebrated author and illustrator Henry Cole uses stunningly detailed black-and-white artwork to illuminate a tale of friendship between an adventurous mouse and a boy who would become one of America's greatest presidents. 
	In this sequel to A Nest for Celeste, Celeste is hundreds of miles from home following an unexpected journey aboard a Mississippi steamboat. After mishaps and disasters, she finds herself on the frontier in southern Indiana. It's 1822, and Celeste meets a tall, lanky boy wielding an ax: a young Abraham Lincoln. 
	The journey reveals the harsh realities of frontier life for the Lincoln family. But with the help of Celeste's new woodland animal friends and some creativity, she may just prove that even the littlest creatures can make a big difference. And it's in losing her way that Celeste finds herself in a place she never expected-home, finally.
	"A stand-alone sequel to A Nest for Celeste (2010), this chapter book has everything that made its predecessor so enjoyable: an inviting format, good storytelling, and at least one large, beautifully drawn shaded pencil illustration on each double-page spread. An inviting entry into historical fiction." –Booklist]]></description><link>https://toledo.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S981C16819831</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://toledo.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S981C16819831</guid><category><![CDATA[EBOOK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Cole, Henry]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 31 Jan 2018 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://toledo.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/16819831981</comments><format>EBOOK</format><subtitle>A Story About Abe Lincoln, Honesty, and the Power of Friendship</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780062658142/MC.GIF&amp;client=tlcovega&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Homer on the Case]]></title><description><![CDATA[A homing pigeon teams up with a parrot and their humans to investigate an animal crime spree in this action-packed detective story from Henry Cole.Homing pigeon Homer and his parrot friend Lulu learn something is afoul when they witness four-legged criminals stealing valuables from both the animal and human communities.

	From a tall tree growing in the forest--

to the checkout counter at the grocery store--

one little bag finds its way into the hands of a young boy on the eve of his first day of school.




	And so begins an incredible journey of one little bag that is used

and reused

and reused again.




	In a three-generation family, the bag is transporter of objects and keeper of memories.

Each page features a different way to be a good person, like using proper manners, telling someone they are special, or sharing a treat! The text is accompanied by two or three related vignettes of different animals giving examples of ways to be good. And in one illustration out of each set, one animal (like a cat peering into a fishbowl!) may not be doing the best job of being kind!
The animal characters and simple text will help readers learn the importance of kindness in a fun way with lots of kid appeal.
Our animal friends will show you

Exactly how it is done

Make sure to look closely

Kindness can be very FUN!]]></description><link>https://toledo.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S981C13768509</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://toledo.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S981C13768509</guid><category><![CDATA[EBOOK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Cole, Henry]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 31 Jan 2018 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://toledo.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/13768509981</comments><format>EBOOK</format><subtitle/><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781338290899/MC.GIF&amp;client=tlcovega&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Three Hens and a Peacock]]></title><description><![CDATA[This hilarious book reveals what happens when some foolish farm animals decide to trade roles-and discover just how hard it is to do someone else's job. The Tuckers' farm is a peaceful place. Everyone has a job and no one complains. That is, until a hapless peacock falls off the back of a passing truck and stirs things up. Soon, customers are flocking to the farm to see what all the fuss is about. But the hens don't like the newcomer getting attention while they do all the hard work. The wise old hound sees the problem and helps orchestrate a job swap. What follows is the hilarious tale of three hens who get in way over their feathered heads and one very distressed peacock who just can't figure out how to lay an egg. Lester L. Laminack has created a comical look at what happens when we underestimate the value of others' work. Henry Cole's delightful illustrations heighten the story's humor and will have readers of all ages laughing out loud.]]></description><link>https://toledo.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S981C11877423</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://toledo.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S981C11877423</guid><category><![CDATA[EBOOK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Laminack, Lester L., Cole, Henry]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 31 Jan 2017 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://toledo.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/11877423981</comments><format>EBOOK</format><subtitle/><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781561459971/MC.GIF&amp;client=tlcovega&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Unspoken: A Story from the Underground Railroad]]></title><description><![CDATA[A young girl's courage is tested in this haunting, wordless story.
